I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Teach for America in Jan 2010
Interview
The phone interview went very well, the interviewer was very friendly. Though we were instructed to read two articles I was asked to choose one of the two to talk about so I would suggest particularly familiarizing with one of the two. I made it a point to try and bring in parts of the TFA mission statement in my answers and I am quite sure this contributed to my getting the final 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.
