I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at City Year in May 2010
Interview
I applied to City Year HQ during the February deadline. I completed a phone interview a couple weeks after being applying. I was notified mid-late March that I was being recommended for the site in Philadelphia and that my application would be forwarded. I then got a phone interview with CYGP in early May. I was notified of acceptance in June.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
City Year's motto is "Give a Year. Change the World." They ask questions related to service and how you feel young adults can impact change through services.
Very simple. Quick virtual interview and pretty simple questions. Research their values and what not and you should be good to go. As far as I remember it was a single interview and decision is relatively soon after that.
Really friendly and welcoming. Try to make it as comfortable as possible and share about the work they do. They want to ensure applicants are making the right decisions and that they assess the values.
I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at City Year
Interview
Done over zoom and not an overly long process interviews are usually conducted by the IM for a school in the city you are applying for but if you have a pulse you should be fine
