I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Huntington Learning Centers (Melbourne, FL) in Aug 2010
Interview
Initial interview was on the phone. The in person interview was not too intimidating- just some questions on tutoring experience, my "teaching philosophy" and most challenging and most rewarding tutoring experiences. The interviewer was pretty nice. They ask for a background check/drug test to be completed before tutoring begins, but they will reimburse it after 3 months of working. They also ask that you be "eligible to be certified" for teaching.
Basic questions about my past tutoring experience and why I want the job. Mention past experience and typical behavioral interview questions. Asked for availability, interview was only one round for me
I interviewed at Huntington Learning Centers (Short Pump, VA)
Interview
The interview process was minimal. I only spoke with the owner, who came across as somewhat off-putting. Despite holding a graduate degree in mathematics, I was told I wouldn’t be moving forward because I “didn’t score high enough” on an ACT-style placement test. This was especially odd, considering I wasn’t given adequate time to prepare, and ACT-style math is a very narrow and specific subset of mathematics that doesn’t reflect broader expertise. The decision was only communicated via text, and only after I followed up a few days later. Overall, the experience felt unprofessional and disorganized. I would not recommend working here.
I applied online. I interviewed at Huntington Learning Centers
Interview
Five minute conversation via zoom. I clearly had more experience than the person interviewing me. Two days later the interviewer no longer worked with the company. The hours I could work changed from whenever I was available to what they wanted. Felt like a bait and switch.
