The group interview was fun and not stressful at all! It was really cool to hear from other potential candidates. We all had a chance to answer questions and it became more of a discussion versus interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How would you handle a child who didn’t want to participate?
I applied online. I interviewed at Galileo Learning (San Jose, CA) in Apr 2011
Interview
I actually didn't go through the normal hiring process; rather, I was a last-minute selection and was interviewed the night before the regional employee training camp. After applying online, I was contacted by a couple of Camp Directors from different sites. They proceeded to conduct their own phone interview and told me I would hear back from them shortly. The Camp Directors seemed very outgoing (and were even more so once I met them later on at training). After getting a couple of rejections, I figured that I wouldn't get an offer. However, on the final day of hiring, I got a call from an HR lady and offered me a Guest Star position (basically, a substitute Team Leader). Most applicants, however, are subjected to group interviews with multiple Camp Directors or Home Office staff.
When I went through the interview process the following summer, I simply had a 30 minute conversation with a Camp Director I worked with last year and was offered a permanent position with a 10% raise.

Question 1
If you have two children in class who are not paying attention to the instructor, how would you handle it? What if after your intervention, they continue to disrupt class?
Group interview with 4 other people, and the hiring manager. Very friendly. Had each of us present a camp/ icebreaker activity that we came prepared with and a couple of behavioral questions. Got a response a couple of weeks after!

Question 1
What would you do if there was a kid sitting all by themselves, away from the group?
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Galileo Learning
Interview
Not traditional interview with several candidates together, getting asked to pretend to prepare to present to young children some activities. Then each candidate presented their ideas of a fun activity. Some of the activities will be important and useful during actual camp.
