Pretty complex. If you get through the first round, you have to read a book, and then interview two or three more times. The people I talked with were really nice, and the school model is interesting, but a little too complex of an interview process for my liking.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Acton Academy
Interview
This was for the Princeton location. The interview was over Google Meets/Hangouts. I had some trouble with the app on my phone and could not hear the audio. We ended up doing a phone call. I enjoyed our conversation and thought it went well. The person interviewing me seemed pleased with me and asked me to send her my references. I did and I notified all of my references that this employer would be contact them. However, I never heard back from the employer. It was quite embarrassing and inconsiderate to ask me for my references and have me go to the trouble of alerting my references when they did not contact them. Perhaps they did not thoroughly read my application and salary requirements (their application process is unorthodox and tedious and takes a lot of trouble to complete so they should really be more careful). I found this to be unprofessional and a bad sign of things to come. I've worked with a lot of start up companies so I'm pretty understanding but at the very least the employer could have responded to my thank you email and explained what happened. Next time, don't have people notify their references until you're more certain. It is disrespectful.

Question 1
Tell me about your experience working with children.
As part of the interview process, I completed an online personality quiz, was asked to answer some essay questions in writing, and also submitted some videos in which I answered specific questions about my experience. After each item was received, I got personal feedback (via email) and was told what the next step in the process was. In addition, someone called me (it went straight to voicemail at the time) to check in and see how I was doing with the interview process. I really appreciated that.
