I really like that they are super responsive. You apply and within 24 hours they reply with the next steps. This is the first time I have ever done an interview process with video submissions! I love that because it is fast, accurate, and shows your skills.

I am currently still in the interview process with YiYi English, but I have been highly impressed with the process thus far. When applying, you are asked to introduce yourself through video, which I found to be a fun and interesting way for them to meet you on a more personal level without having to be face to face. Once you have applied and they are interested in you further as a candidate, they ask you to record yourself teaching a mock lesson among a few other things. Once advanced past this point, you are asked to complete an online training course which takes about an hour or so and really gives you a thorough idea of the company’s philosophies on teaching English, the technology they use while teaching, general idea of how a lesson is taught and what they will look like, as well as company policies. I found this to be an excellent part of the interview process as it gives the applicant a clear picture of what the job would entail allowing one to be sure this is a job they want to do. It is evident that this company wants to set their teachers up for success because of the detailed training as well as the resources and support systems available to their teachers. My next step is to teach a mock lesson to a YiYi English staff member pretending to be a student to assess my strengths and weaknesses and whether I would be a good fit. Through the interview process alone, I am excited at the prospect of working with this company!

The interview went smoothly. The recruitment team was helpful and answered all my questions. The questions asked were straightforward, given that I had already provided answers to all of them in the application form. They discussed the salary, which was unfortunately too low, leading to my decision to decline the offer. They also inquired about my availability regarding working hours.

Confirmed questions1 question
  • Can you tell me about your availability concerning working hours?
