Technical
The interview process at Tutor.com was straightforward. First, I had to complete at least one subject exam that was on demand, which took me a few days. Once I passed, the rest of the process was smooth and simple, including setting up my profile and waiting for approval to start working.

Behavioral Technical Other
The interview process started off pretty impersonal. I had to download their software and use this old-looking app for a text chat. I wasn't sure if I was talking to a bot at first since there was no camera. It later turned into an audio interview where they asked about my motivation for tutoring there, my prior experience, and a hypothetical situation about helping a student outline procedures. The question itself was strange, but I answered it. I was unimpressed with the limited screen share and the terrible whiteboard. Since I couldn't contact students directly and the job required having the app open with no guaranteed student inquiries, I decided it wasn't a good fit and withdrew my application the next day.
