I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Sylvan Learning Centers (Phoenix, AZ) in Mar 2011
Interview
Very friendly, asked about teaching background and examples of tutoring. I was shown the general set up and how they run tutoring. They explained how each hour worked, and the materials they used. They gave a great outline of how to structure and run a session, and explained some of the difficulties some teachers encounter and how to work around them.
I applied through other source. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Sylvan Learning Centers (Tucson, AZ) in Apr 2022
Interview
It was rushed and there was a chaotic atmosphere. Lots of other people being interviewed. I got the sense that they were desperate. The interviewer was acting like I already had the job and I had to ask point blank, "Are you offering me a job?" They said a previous interviewee would not work for less than $30 an hour. They said they have to keep the prices down for the parents paying for tutoring.

Interview
It was a standard process. They called me in for an interview. We went over my resume, background in teaching, and years of experience in different content areas. I explained why I was looking for part-time work. I was able to ask a lot of questions. I remember asking about the student population, opportunities for more hours and promotions, available technology, and the staff. My questions were all answered. I felt like I got to know the organization very well during the interview.
