I applied in-person. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Life Time (Schaumburg, IL) in Apr 2013
Interview
I had used their online process for submitting my application and not heard anything for a while. I then went in to the Lifetime I was applying for and dropped my resume off with the receptionist and asked if she could give it to the Member Engagement Manager. 2 days later i received a call from him asking if I could go in for an interview the next day. Obviously, I said yes. I dressed smartly, in my suit. When I arrived i was greeted by him and his assistant an went into his office. They went over my resume, asked me about my previous place of work and what experiences I had incurred. He then asked me to tell him about a situation where I had a problem, what I did about it, and what was the outcome. So i used an example of something from my previous job. This went down really well as there was some similarities in what I was talking about and problems that they had dealt with there. They asked me about goal setting. I told them that I was well aware of having to go above and beyond to get the results to ensure the club reached their targets. He then asked me how much I wanted to earn, I said I'd be pleased if I could make $50k, he replied "i guarantee you will make at least $50k, you should set your eyes on $70-75k" Im not sure whether he was just saying it to get me on board or not. At the end of the interview he said that he was really excited about me and that I was his best interview. He printed out the mission and vision statement and told me to memeorize it for the interview with GM. He said he would call me to come back and have an interview with the GM.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Life Time in May 2015
Interview
First you meet with the sales manager, followed by the location general manger, before finally interviewing with the regional manager. many steps in the interview process, but it makes it feel that much better to get the job.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Life Time (Troy, MI)
Interview
Submitted application online, MEM (Member Engagement Manager) set up appointment to meet within a couple of days, met with her and it was pretty basic (they'll basically take anyone willing to cold call and work 70+ hours per week - even without sales experience). After that I interviewed with the GM of the club, same interview... Life Time is full of robots so they just read off of a sheet that corporate gives them and they rate whether or not you filled in all of their little boxes. Basically all you have to do (and they'll tell you this) is give them a specific incidence or example of whatever question they want answered, what happened, what you did, and what the outcome was. After that you'll meet with the Regional, same interview again... and you're done. All of this should take about a week or two. If you can pretend to be an aggressive drone you'll be fine. They actually tell their sales people to drill the person in front of them until they get pissed enough to walk away so get ready for that.

Interview
Very lengthly and through. They want to make sure they are hiring people who can handle the hours and who can handle the work it takes to actually make money doing something like that. I interviewed with my manager, his manager, and also the regional manager.
