Hello, onliners! In this video, I walk you through the ESL hiring process—what usually happens from the moment you decide to apply up to the demo and interview stages. I made this as a Tutors’ Guide-style breakdown so you’ll know what to expect, what to prepare, and how to avoid getting overwhelmed when different companies ask for different steps. If you’re new to online ESL, this is the kind of overview I wish I had before sending out applications. I also point you to the exact resources I’ve shared on my channel that can help you move faster: sample demo lessons, interview experiences (like PalFish), application process + technical requirements, and the tools/websites I use for teaching kids. Since hiring is not just about “speaking good English,” I also highlight the importance of your setup—audio, lighting, and overall classroom presence—because these things can affect how you perform in a demo. If you’re building your ESL career step-by-step, this video is your starting map.
