I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Harvard University in Sep 2013
Interview
A course was short-staffed after a large influx of students wanting to take the class. They reached out through their current TF's and I was contacted since I had graduated and was in the area. I was brought in immediately with little prior communication. The world of academia is simply a far more casual place than other sectors.
After meeting with the head of the course, she asked me several questions, but mostly about my commitments during the semester (of which I had none). Shortly after she let me know she'd love to have me aboard.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
All questions were fairly straightforward, and the resume matters more. But the most encompassing question was, "what do you plan to do to increase student participation?"
I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Harvard University in Jul 2015
Interview
Pretty easy interview process. I met with an administrator one-on-one and then with a professor one-on-one. There are only a few students in this particular field, so I guess there wasn't much competition.

Talk about your background, etc. Pretty standard interview questions
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Harvard University (Boston, MA) in Oct 2012
Interview
Most behvavioral questions. I met with the course instructor. I was referred to her by a past teaching fellow and promptly forwarded my resume for her perusal and approval. I was asked about my prior teaching experiences, why I want to be a tutor, what I think my teaching strengths and weaknesses are etc.
