I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at REI in Oct 2020
Interview
It was quite mondane- simple and to the point. Questions were focused on either outdoor interests and/ or retail experience. Interviewer rarely spoke besides asking questions or acknowledging an answer.
Group interviews were friendly and well managed. Staff were kind and understanding. Good and thoughtful interview process. I appreciate the relaxed atmosphere at the store and when speaking with the interviewers.
The interview process was simple and over the phone. Then I went in person. She was very nice, but the store manager was a bit off. Ultimately, it just wasn't a good fit.
Submitted resume online then they wanted me to do a really stupid video interview where I answer questions from a prompt and video record myself giving answers. Just schedule a normal interview you idiots.
