You can apply to be a TA after completing the course if you got a good grade. They'll announce it, so pay attention. You submit a resume, and if they're interested, they'll invite you for an interview. It's with a panel of professors and Head TAs, so just stay calm and talk about your experience. Someone will probably know you from the class.
