Candidate-reported interview process
The first phone chat went really well! They asked five questions, and I got an email about 15 minutes later saying I'm moving on to the next step, which is an in-person interview. If you've taught before, like as an assistant, lead teacher, or tutor, you should find those questions pretty easy to answer.
I was given a take-home task, and they said I'd have a second interview, but then I didn't hear back. Weeks later, they sent an email asking me to interview for the same job, which was a mistake, lol.
I talked to the recruiter first, who was nice but seemed a bit disorganized. After that, I had to do a big assignment. I only got a generic rejection even after following up twice. It really didn't sit right that they'd have people do 2-4 hours of work for free and not give any feedback.
