I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Equinox
Interview
Started with a brief phone screen to talk over resume. First in person interview was about an hour long, with training managers, with the standard "what would you do if" and "give us an example of when" type questions. 2nd interview required a programmed workout, and a coaching session performed on the manager. Pretty straight forward. They were more concerned about my ability and willingness to learn than my experience.
Virtual and in-person interviews; virtual interview was not too bad it was a recorded interview with situational questions and multiple choice while the in-person interview was mostly a vibe check and seeing how you would take on new clients.

I applied online. I interviewed at Equinox (Greenwich, CT)
Interview
I had a very positive phone interview experience with Equinox. The interviewer was professional, welcoming, and respectful of my time. They asked clear, thoughtful questions about my background and gave a great overview of the role, team expectations, and the company culture. The conversation felt organized and informative, and I appreciated how transparent they were about next steps in the process. Overall, it was a smooth and pleasant interview experience that reflected well on the company.
Super easy, had a round with a recruiter and then met with the manager. They were very transparent about pay and work required. I see a lot of negative reviews about pay, but at least from my experience the whole pay scale was clearly communicated and lined out.
