The interview process includes typical retail experience questions, scenario-based questions and answers. It is dependent on the warehouse, but it typically involves the candidate and the department manager. Overall, fairly simple process
I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Costco Wholesale (Wyoming, MI) in Sep 2021
Interview
Discuss past work history, and previous experience in customer service. Will get a 2nd interview where they basically ask your availability and give you a mouth swab drug test right in the office at the warehouse, so don't smoke before going in for your interview! lol

I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Costco Wholesale (Chicago, IL) in Oct 2024
Interview
Easy. Straightforward. Just like any other company. Asked a few questions about your job history and how you work with others. Then told me I should hear back in a couple days.
I interviewed at Costco Wholesale (Santa Clarita, CA)
Interview
It was relatively easy. Just asked basic questions about experience. Most of the harder questions came from questions asking about customer service. Just remember they aren't customers, but members. They offer little training, so once you start you kind of are thrown in there, and it gets super busy. A little intimidting.
