“interested to join”
Say “I'm interested in joining your team”. For an action you'd like to do, “interested” takes “in” and the “-ing” form. “Interested to hear” and “interested to know” are fine.

I'm interested to join your team.
Travels further
- I'm interested in joining your team.
- I'd like to join your team.
Why it lands differently
This line often opens a cover letter or an interview answer, so it's worth getting it to sound natural. “Interested to” works for learning something (“I'd be interested to hear your view”), while wanting to do something takes “interested in doing”.
When it's fine
With “hear”, “know”, “see” and “learn”: “I'm interested to see how it goes.”
Try it out loud
Read each line, say a version that travels out loud, then open it to compare. Any version that's clear to a listener abroad counts.
