Applied online, then had a quick first chat with HR. After that, I interviewed with my direct manager and finally with some higher-ups. The interviews were all pretty professional and I got to ask them questions too.

Presentation Behavioral

After your application is approved, you'll get a worksheet. You need to describe different weapon systems, how they work, and give examples. If they like your submission and your teaching style, you'll have a phone interview. There might be 2-3 other people on the call. They'll ask basic questions about your teaching approach, your firearm experience, and other general get-to-know-you stuff.
