I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at 2U (Houston, TX) in Nov 2021
Interview
The process starts with a phone interview to review your qualifications, availability, and position. If considered, you take a coding exam to test how much you know about the topics covered in the course. If you pass, then you get a second interview with a coordinator where you will be tested on your ability to teach and handle general case situations. The coordinator will act as a student with general case problems and you must help he/her as if you were the professor. She'll ask various questions about her code and you must use zoom features and teaching methods to solve her issues.

Question 1
First interview: What made you apply to this position and do you have any teaching experience?
Spoke with recruiter after passing technical assessment. Basic questions. Next step is to record mock-teaching videos and be approved. Then, would be placed 'if there's a need' for TA's in the upcoming bootcamp cohorts. Not really an interview, since I was referred.
