I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at The Princeton Review (Irvine, CA) in Jan 2015
Interview
Gave a 10 min lecture on Organic Chem and a topic of my choosing. One employee viewed this and asked a few questions. After that we had lunch together which I assume is the last step to confirm you're personable.

Honestly, if you know your stuff and your personable you'll be a good fit
Pretty straightforward interview process as long as you have the right qualifications. If you're teaching a standardized test, you'll need to reach the company's minimum score for that test to even be considered.
