City Year interview questions

When applying I had chosen NY as my specific site. I also applied from abroad and CY was very accommodating when it came to setting up interview times that worked with my schedule/the time difference. After submitting the application I had an initial phone interview and then was informed by email that I was chosen for a selection interview. I think City Year prefers to do this interview in person but they will do it over the phone if you cannot come to their offices in Chelsea. The person with whom I did my interview was really personable and friendly and it was a very comfortable interview. Standard questions but definitely emphasize your desire to work with underserved youth and passion for education. Also, make it clear that you are looking for opportunities for leadership development. City Year loves to create new leaders/bring people to their full potential.
