So first, you gotta apply by putting your basic info like education and teaching background on VIPKid’s platform. Then comes the demo lesson, you get to pick between a Smart Demo which is like a 5-minute recorded thing with slides they give you, you can redo it too. Or, you can do a Live Demo, that's a 30-minute video call where a recruiter pretends to be a student and gives you pointers on the spot. After that, there's a mock class where you teach a 10-minute lesson to a mentor playing a student, and you gotta use VIPKid’s curriculum, like Level 2-3 or 4-5 stuff. Oh, and if you don't have your TESOL/TEFL cert already, you gotta do their training and get certified.

We had an online face-to-face interview at a scheduled time, followed by another interview with a recruiter. This second interview involved a mock classroom where I had to teach while the recruiter observed and took notes.
