I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Varsity Tutors (San Diego, CA) in Feb 2015
Interview
It was a Skype interview. After some typical interview questions, I was asked to pretend to give a class in my subject of choice. It won't be hard at all if you know your subject.

Question 1
"I'm a complete beginner and I am not familiar with anything that you might teach me: how would you begin your class?"
The interview was very straightforward including a series of video interviews where you record yourself answering a couple questions asking to detail qualifications and reasons for getting hired, and a set of questions toward the end of the interview that asked you to explain certain problems from subject areas of your choice.

Interview
Varsity Tutors has a basic Online Application. They are eager for more tutors and answer quickly. An agent set up a phone interview and called me. It was quite an easy process. From there, Varsity Tutors has Skills Tests for tutors to take. For each Skills Test you pass, you are approved to teach that subject.

Interview
I am giving the interview process a thumbs down because, I never actually talked to a human being during the entire process. I literally put on a suit and talked to my laptop. I had to record my answers to interview questions on a platform called Hire View. You are given practice questions to get used to the platform. However, once you are ready to record your actual interview you only have one shot at recording your answer.

Question 1
How would you explain how to add fractions with unlike denominators.
