I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Bright Horizons Family Solutions (Saint Louis, MO) in Aug 2012
Interview
After completing an application online I completed a phone interview with a recruiter. As a result I was invited to a group interview of 30+ applicants. It was more of a recruitment event due to a new center opening. I suppose I did very well as I was contacted to come in for a face to face interview and then then a work interview in order to display the skills I possessed when interacting with children.

Standard questions about experience and childcare philosophy. One interview with director and assistant director, questions in office and then a 30 minute working interview took place in the classroom. It was about a week before the offer was made.

Fairly simple, they have a list of questions that must be answered as it’s a corporate childcare setting. Basic preschool teacher questions. Things like how to handle biting, classroom management, customer service, etc.
