I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at EF (Education First) (Cambridge, MA) in Sep 2016
Interview
Initial screening call lasted about an hour, was invited in the following week for a group interview. Interviewed with 3 other applicants and a series of managers. Met first in a group setting and answered questions as a round table discussion. Then broke off into individual interviews. Heard back about a week later that I had advanced to a 1:1 "mock call" interview. Spoke with someone from HR for about 30 minutes.
Was offered job about a week later! Great experience overall. Definitely a difficult company to get in the door with but they have a great attitude and strive to hire people who they feel are the "right fit" for their company's mission.
