I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Teach for America (Washington, DC)
Interview
The interview process was tedious but not too difficult. They pretend like any and everyone is eligible and actually has a shot at getting accepted. They accept around 12% of applicants, so beware. The interviewers are very friendly and make you feel at ease. Just be yourself.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Teach for America (New York, NY) in Jan 2012
Interview
Extremely long process. Takes time to get on folks calendars. Multiple interviews in the same day and multiple interviewers in the same interview. The organization is difficult to get into and the interview process is how they manage it. HR is slow to respond even if they are very much interested in you.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Be prepared to answer questions around the mission and vision of TFA and how they pertain to you. Technical questions are minimal.
