Tips, guidance, and directives for your True Tutor interview.

The steps

• Complete your True Tutor application for employment
• ​Wait up to 48 hours for us to confirm an interview for one of the dates/times you provided us in your application
  • ​Interviews are only offered to eligible applicants. If we noticed anything in your application that shows you're not eligible for the job you applied for, we'll send you a notification via email and cancel your application.
    
• Email yourtruetutor@gmail.com as soon as possible if something immediate came up that prevents you from being able to make your interview. Alerting us is appreciated; missing your interview without notifying us will disqualify you from employment consideration.
  
• Test your computer's video & audio components 30 minutes before the interview. In case there are issues, this should allow ample time for you to fix errors or log-in to an alternative device.
  
• Participate in your interview
  
  • ​This interview is giving your employer the opportunity to get to know you, your interests, and your talents. We're going to ask questions about you; please provide detailed answers that allow us to get to know you and your personality.
    
  • Although the interview will be conducted electronically, it's still an interview. Please dress appropriately and be in an appropriate setting that's noise and distraction-free.
    
• Wait 3-10 days for additional information
  
  • ​Notes from your interview, your application, and supplemental materials (if provided) will be considered. You'll hear from us 3-10 days after your interview.
    
  • If you're offered a job, additional directives to accept the position will follow.
    
  • If you need to withdraw your application, or if you have any questions, please contact us. However, please don't email us to ask about the status of your application -- we're working on it.
    

Faq's

• Who will I be interviewing with?
  • ​All interviews are individual
  • Tutor and Marketing Associate applicants will be interviewed by an Area Operator. Additionally, 1-2 of the company's co-owners may participate in part or all of your interview.
  • ​Area Operator applicants will be interviewed by the company's 3 co-owners.
• What if I know the interviewer?
  • ​Because True Tutor zones our service areas by district, there is a chance that you know of or are even friends with the Area Operator. If this is the case, an Area Operator will request that at least one of the company's co-owners participates in the interview & decision making process to avoid a conflict of interest.
  • The interviewer will be your boss, if employed. If this could cause a conflict of interest or a situation you're not comfortable with, ask the owners (yourtruetutor@gmail.com) about invite-only independent jobs or see if you could possibly work for a neighboring zone.
• How will the interview be conducted? How long will it last?
  • ​Interviews will be conducted via Google Meet or Zoom
  • Tutors/Marketing Associates: anticipate 20-30 minutes of your time
  • Area Operators: anticipate 30-40 minutes of your time
• What if I miss / am late for my interview?
  • ​The interviewers will leave the call seven (7) minutes after the scheduled start time of your interview if we haven't heard from you & you're not on the call.
  • If you alert us that you can't make the originally posted time, we'll work with you on a case-by-case basis to reschedule the interview. In most cases, we will entertain a rescheduling request.
  • If you don't alert us, your application will be discarded.
• What if my application is rejected?
  • ​You'll still be informed via email. Most applicants that are rejected for the first time may re-apply after 6 months. The letter detailing your employment decision will mention whether or not we will re-review you as an applicant after 6 months.
• I need something else - who can I contact?
  • ​You may contact yourtruetutor@gmail.com at any point before, during, or after the application process. One of our co-owners will get back to you directly within 24 hours.
    • ​You may also contact your Area Operator for help.
      
  • Remember to never send us an email asking about your application status during the 10 day post-interview consideration period.  Of course, you may email us during this period for any other reason.
