City Year interview questions

The process was relatively quick, but I think that depends on when you submit your application. After submitting, you will schedule a phone interview. For me that lasted 30 minutes. It was relatively simple and was mostly a process of making sure that you understood what city year was. Afterward, if you were selected to move on, I went to a in person interview though I believe for others, they did web-interviews. That was also pretty typical. They focused more on you giving examples of team work, conflicts, past experience with education, dealing with more experienced or less experienced co-workers, etc.

Interview was over skype with recruiter, felt casual and personalized. Asked a number of typical interview questions regarding experience and skill set. Asked why i wanted to join the program as well as one challenging experience and how I overcame it. Asked about my upbringing and view of education inequity.
