J'ai postulé via un établissement d'enseignement supérieur ou universitaire. Le processus a pris 4 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Teach for America (Ithaca, NY) en oct. 2015
Entretien
(This is all about the final interview; I skipped the phone interview). Do a pre-prepared five minute sample lesson. Then there is a group activity, then a break, and then the regular one-on-one interview. Make sure you have practiced your sample lesson heavily: five minutes goes by very quickly. Also make sure you have time during the sample lesson for there to be an individual group/activity and to go around the room and engage with individuals as they do it. The interview itself was very weird: the interviewer does not make eye contact the entire time because they are typing furiously on the computer. Also, they asked weird questions like interrogating me heavily about how selective a specific extracurricular I do is, instead of focusing more on work experiences and behavioral stuff.

Teach For America's staffing for corps member interviews is hit or miss. I felt uncomfortable with the forced rainbow coalition interview set up. It seemed very performative especially when you realized that there were no regular Black people. Everyone graduated from Harvard or had an MBA from some other Ivy. It was weird.
