Behavioral Technical Presentation
After you submit your application, you might be invited for an interview during the Winter. You have multiple location options across the US, but PiA won't pay for your travel. You'll find out if you're moving on by March. Teachers get assigned a post. If you're looking for an NGO role, PiA will 'nominate' you, and then the host company will interview you, likely on Skype. Once they approve, you'll officially get the post.
