The interview process was very easy! It was an hour long phone interview. All the questions were relatively easy, and with little prep, everyone should be fine. I would just recommend knowing about the City Year values and have a few in mind when answering questions.

I filled out the online application then I got an email, scheduling a phone interview. It lasted for almost an hour I want to say. Then I heard back within a week that I got the job. I didn't meet anyone in person until registration day, which is when they collect your identification pretty much.
