I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Teach for America (State College, PA) in Mar 2018
Interview
For the virtual interview, we used Zoom. It does require a lot of preparation (you have to prepare a short sample lesson and read some information that they provide to you before about possible scenarios etc) but they do a good job of outlining the process and giving you several resources. First we did introductions, heard a bit about the program, then the sample lessons, then they give you and the other interviewers a group activity and then you sign up for the individual interview.
The interview was relaxed and they were certainly there to help. They made it clear they would help you through the whole process of becoming a teacher with your own mentor guiding you.
easy and fun, lots of help through the process. Very helpful and kind, lots of responsiveness. everyone has a clear vision of the mission, and wants to achieve it. Loved it.

Question 1
They asked me to walk them through a case study, explaining how I would approach the problem, structure my analysis, and recommend a solution. They focused on my thought process, communication, and ability to connect insights to business outcomes.
