The interview process included two assessments, a video script writing assignment, two hour-long interviews with two managers, and a reference check. The assessments were timed and focused on student feedback methods, aptitude, and IQ. After completing all of these steps, being asked about a potential start date, and truly hitting it off with the people I interviewed with, I was rejected. I had to email for an update and was told that they were looking for someone more consistent and ready for the role. What gets me is that I have more experience in the field than the people who interviewed me and know I made a really positive impression. The rejection felt both personal and impersonal, like they criticized my experience in a way that did not reflect how my interviews went. It seemed like someone above the people I interviewed with took one look at my resume and judged it without any other information and denied me. I provided context for any job changes on my resume in our interview but it didn’t mean anything. I haven’t experienced a rejection like this from any other company. It felt very baseless, especially after the impression my interviewers gave me regarding my quality of work and alignment with the company. I know they get a lot of applicants, but I truly felt like I fit right in with the staff and they were impressed with my performance throughout each step. I have a lot of ideas for their courses and was very excited to work alongside people who cared about individual growth, but after this experience I don’t know if I’ll apply again.

Complete scam! Made it to final rounds of interview where I had to submit a sample lesson. Just like other reviews, I never made it past this stage while they kept my leason.
