J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 2 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Teach for America (Tucson, AZ) en mars 2012
Entretien
It's lengthy and stressful. They expect a lot right out of the gate. You have a phone interview, have to take a test on literacy and policies, etc. to see if you make the right choices to be a teacher and esp. in a low income and low budget school system. The day long interview is fun. You start out in a group and teach a mock lesson for whatever grade you choose, and then get to act like a student in everyone else's lessons. Afterward, you get into groups and act like staff at a school and make input ideas and decisions to fix problems the school faces. You get a break and then go the one on one interviews. This was my favorite part, because my interviewer was really attentive and excited. She worked in the same region I was applying for and asked insightful questions. When I left I had no doubt that I had got in. TFA prepares you for the interview, provides tons of resources, and truly wants to recruit like-minded individuals that are up for a challenge. I enjoyed the process, but didn't have the energy to relocate and teach a subject I was hardly qualified to teach to a bunch of kids that could probably care less. In the end, I wasn't motivated to take on such a challenge, where I felt it would be extremely time-consuming and exhausting to really succeed.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Nothing is difficult if you are qualified. They make sure that you are well-prepared going in and they don't try to blind side you with questions that will throw you off. You can tell all of the interviewers really believe in the mission and want you to succeed.
The interview was relaxed and they were certainly there to help. They made it clear they would help you through the whole process of becoming a teacher with your own mentor guiding you.
