I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Mathnasium (South Barrington, IL) in Jun 2013
Interview
I was asked about my past tutoring experience, then given a math test. It was basic elementary math with some geometry, but I had to score above an 85% to pass. It was simple & the owner explained everything to me. I was hired the same day and began work the next week.
A math assessment (no calculators allowed), phone call interview, and a live teaching evaluation - very straightforward and the process took less than a few weeks! I also had to complete a VSC afterward.

How do you work with students with learning disabilities?
I applied online. I interviewed at Mathnasium (Coral Springs, FL)
Interview
Pretty straightforward overall. The main challenge is just getting through the long and tedious math exam, since it takes a lot of focus and patience to work through all the problems without making small mistakes. The material itself is manageable, but the length of the assessment can definitely make it mentally exhausting by the end.

Question 1
They mainly just had me take a pretty long math exam. It was fairly straightforward overall, but definitely tedious because of how many problems there were. The biggest thing was staying focused the entire time and carefully working through each question without making small mistakes.
One round over zoom and then another meeting in person. Asked common interview questions about why you'd be a good fit and had you do an example demo tutoring practice with a problem.
