Application
I interviewed at The Princeton Review in Jul 2014
Interview
Territory manager was friendly, energetic, and straightforward. For the interview, i was asked to prepare a 5 minute teachback on any non-academic subject. Afterward, I took a shortened SAT exam. Office was small and casual. I can tell that they are looking for instructors who can make the SAT studying process a fun and enjoyable experience.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Questions on the SAT exam. I didn't expect taking an SAT exam (even if it was a shortened version).
Started with behavioral phone interview. First interview had a teach back edition (teach about something unrelated to SAT/ACT). Followed by series of teach back sessions based on assigned pages from the Princeton Review manual.

Teach us something non-academic (5-10 minute teach back)
I applied online. I interviewed at The Princeton Review (San Francisco, CA) in Jun 2017
Interview
After screening my initial application and making me take a qualifying exam to prove my competency, they sent me an email notifying me that I should set up a time for a Skype interview. Fast forward to the date of the interview, they notified me mere minutes before the set time that they had already hired all of the instructors they needed and therefore did not need to interview me. TPR seems very disorganized, and somewhat rude.

(They canceled minutes before the interview, but I've heard they mainly ask personality and motivation based questions)
I applied online. I interviewed at The Princeton Review (Chapel Hill, NC) in Jan 2016
Interview
I applied online. I had to take a shortened version of the SAT because the SAT is undergoing drastic changes in March. Then I did a phone interview with someone and finally was asked to do a 10-minute presentation via Skype. I presented on how to move. From there, I was invited to training, which is the part I hate. It was Friday 6-9 pm, Saturday & Sunday 9-6 pm for two days. I don't want to continue training because I don't like their strategies. You will not get certified unless you teach their strategies. Training is $8.10/hr and you are reimbursed for food and parking. The non-local candidates were put up in a hotel.
