I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Costco Wholesale (Rockwall, TX) in Jan 2010
Interview
I applied for a cashier position online after receiving a notice that I was going to be laid off at my previous employer. I got a phone call for an interview about four days after I applied. I was interviewed by a supervisor and another supervisor that was just writing my responses. They asked me about my experiences from my previous job. I thought the interview was going well, until they asked me questions that are more relevant to Costco. Considering that my family recently purchased a membership and I have been there only two times, I had to kind of BS those questions to the best of my ability. Needless to say, I did not get the job, and learned to do some research before an interview.

Good vibe. It seems like the employees like working there. I came to interview because of their reputation of how they treat employees. Looks very fast paced because of the amount of customers the store has.
