It was difficult. Mine lasted 2 hours. My interviewer was very nice. Be prepared! We started with the sample lesson and then we had the case study. Have a strong why if you’re decision to join teach for America. They want you to succeed!
It flew like a conversation, and there was a strong emphasis on motivations. Past experiences and relevant projects were enquired extensively. My interviewer was super friendly and accommodating; she followed up a lot on my answers.
I applied online. I interviewed at Teach for America (Seattle, WA) in Oct 2019
Interview
It was a solo interview, I think they normally do group interviews but because of COVID it was virtual and just the interviewer and myself. They asked questions about my resume then did a sample lesson I created before the interview.
