The interview process was pretty straightforward. After you apply online, there's a short, about 15-minute class presentation. Then, some questions about your experience with Canvas LMS, teaching methods, and techniques.

Behavioral

I had an interview with three people, who seemed to be the dean of admissions. The questions weren't too hard. We were in a conference room, and they were taking notes on my responses. They mentioned a points system, but by the end of the day, it seemed like they didn't even follow it.

Behavioral Technical Presentation

They asked me a few simple questions about my background first. Then, they wanted me to tutor them through some problems from the two highest math levels I said I could teach. It was a pretty chill interview. They really just wanted to make sure my math skills were solid and that I wouldn't be difficult to work with as a tutor.

Other Presentation

The interview process involved a writing prompt, a committee interview, and a short presentation, all conducted virtually over Zoom. It was a good experience overall, and I was given adequate notice and instructions to get ready for each part. The topics and questions aligned well with the job description, so there weren't any surprises.
