I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at IXL Learning
Interview
A few days after applying (resume and cover letter), IXL contacted me to set up a brief phone interview. Other reviews have largely covered the questions asked - be able to answer the classic questions (why IXL). It was clear from the questions asked this is a position that requires previous teaching experience.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Do you have a speciality in your field? Briefly describe how you would teach that particular subject to an eight grade class over the course of two weeks.
Pretty straightforward. The recruiter will call you and ask some pre-screening question then you will be asked to complete a task within a week. The task consists of grammatical correction, alignment and information clarity.
Had a phone screening which went well, followed by a work product. The instructions on the work product were overall very vague, and took a lot of guessing/assuming what they were looking for. It took me about 5 hours total, and I received a rejection email stating that no feedback would be given and with no further explanation.
The interview consisted of a recruiter call. Then a 2nd call. Then a remote meeting via zoom where I was drilled with questions that didn't seem to math the role I applied for. Zero emotions shown. No smiles.
