I applied in-person. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at The Goddard School (New York, NY)
Interview
I saw they were hiring online and decided to call and briefly tell them my experience and an interview was scheduled for the following week. The interview was pretty laid back. The center director interviewed me and we talked about some of the things on my resume and I was asked a few questions. She brought me outside where the kids were playing and I met the teacher I would be working with. I stayed out there for a little so I could interact with the kids and talk to the other teacher. Then I was shown the classroom and met more of the kids that were inside. We went back into the office and I asked a few questions I had and then I gave my references and said I would receive a call back soon. A few hours later I got offered the job and the next day I picked up my paperwork. There is a background check and you need to get fingerprinted. The hiring process doesn't take long if you start right when you get your paperwork.
