Question 1
What kind of service have I done that aligns with the mission/vision of TFA?
A lengthy written application and phone screen before hearing back about an in person interview. The in person session includes multiple rounds of different types of interviews, group interviews, role plays, and demos.
submitted an application at the final deadline, had a phone interview, then invited to an in person interview, which was all day long in a new location. Had to present a teaching sample, a small group where we all read the same article and then talked about it, and then did a 1:1 interview with one of the two folks leading the process.
