I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Teach for America (Salt Lake City, UT) in Feb 2013
Interview
The application process was very extensive and took about 2 months, including the final interview. They required an essay stating why you were interested and completion of an online activity that discussed educational inequality articles. The phone interview was comfortable and took around 30 minutes. The final interview included teaching a 5 minute lesson, a group activity, and then a one on one interview. The one on one interview was very comfortable and discussed, in detail, information from your application and some related experiences.

How would you take care of yourself in a high stress job?
It's a one-hour interview covering both technical and behavioral rounds, including a case study. So, prepare to discuss your skills, past experiences, and walk through your problem-solving approach for a real-world business scenario.
