It was a really straightforward and chill process. The hiring manager was super nice and easy to chat with. They'll need two references to complete reference forms that EXPLO will send them. Just get a basic understanding of the program and the job, and you should be good.

Behavioral Presentation

To apply, send in an online essay, resume, and your completed course listing to show your interest in teaching content-specific courses. If they like your application, you'll do one or more Skype interviews with administrators. The Skype interview is casual and conversational, mostly asking about your student and teaching experiences. You'll need to talk about ideas for specific lessons and present an "explo-cized" activity idea – basically, a hands-on, student-focused activity that gets students exploring the content in a fresh, exciting way. After this, you might interview with another administrator, or you could get a job offer within the week.

Had a Skype interview with senior management. It went well and felt thorough and welcoming. I was a little misled about the depth of the responsibilities, though. The whole process was fast and felt personal. They asked me relevant questions based on what I submitted. The questions were easy for me, and if you have decent people skills, you should find it easy too.

The interview process with Explo was enjoyable and quite straightforward. I had about three to five phone calls with various managers. They asked me different questions about my background and experience. I got an offer in about two to three months.
