First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Think Together.
Tutor
The process was pretty easy. If you have a Bachelor's degree, you can bypass an assessment. There's a recorded video interview where you talk about how you deal with students and your reasons for wanting to tutor.
- What motivates you to become a tutor?
- How would you handle a disagreement between two students?
Teacher
For the interview, we need to know about your strategies for working with kids. You'll also have to do a demo lesson, where you'll be given a prompt to teach something, like how to do a specific task. There will be around 4 people on the interview panel.
- Can you share a bit about yourself?
- How do you engage with children?
- What are your most effective teaching techniques?
Instructor
So before even getting an interview, they make you do this assessment test covering spelling, algebra, geometry, and reading comprehension. I was totally unprepared for it, and also super tired from waking up at 4 AM for a trip, so I felt like I bombed it. But the test person said they'd consider my overall score and resume. I got an interview invite and scheduled it for the next day. They had me waiting for like an hour with not much info. Then I met with the assistant director and my potential supervisor. They asked about my past experience and how I could be an asset. It felt a bit like a test, but they did give you chances to explain yourself. The final question was about why I'd be a good match for the kids. They had me wait outside, and about 5 minutes later, called me back in to offer me the job, saying I did really well! They gave me some basic info about training and what to do beforehand. I did have to follow up a few days later for more email details since I didn't receive them. It seems like a demanding job with less-than-ideal pay and hours, but I guess it's a good way to find people who are truly dedicated to the kids. I'm looking for a side gig to stay connected with THINK Together.
- What would you do if the kids were misbehaving or not focused?
- Tell me about your job experience and how you can contribute.
- Explain why you're a good fit for these kids.
