I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at NIKE (Beaverton, OR) in Mar 2014
Interview
A surprisingly short interview process. I applied via internal referral and via their company website, and got contacted by the recruiter within a few days.
A very initial phone screen with the recruiter (maybe 10 minutes, the bulk of which was "Are you still interested in this job?") was the first step, followed by two panel interviews. I got the impression that the only reason for the second panel interview was that those people weren't available during the time slot of my first interview.
Nike is VERY big on panel interviews - expect a good deal of confusion around who's who, which person you should be directing your answer to, etc. I was asked to give a presentation on my project experience, and aside from this the interview was very standard behavioral questions (of the "Give an example of a time when ..." variety). Not too challenging, content-wise. Having been on the interviewer side since I started, I can say that Nike is often looking for cultural fit more than anything else (assuming, of course, that your experience broadly meets the position requirements)
After both panel interviews, I heard nothing from the recruiter for a week or two, after several emails and phone calls. I assumed I was out of the running, but then finally got a response and an offer after this period of silence. Almost every job description for Nike includes "tolerance for ambiguity" as a requirement, and this certainly holds true for the interview process.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at NIKE in Feb 2026
Interview
IT consist of 4 rounds.
Post HR screening, first round was scheduled.
The interviewer joined late and then within 10 minutes said I am done with the interview and if you have any questions.
It was just the introduction and walkthrough of experience. I already have good exposure of end to end of an ecommerce domain so not sure what made him judged so quickly. Seems they already shortlisted someone and the interview was just for sake. Wasted my time and energy and looking at this behavior, have decided never to refer anyone or apply to Nike in future. Very bad experience , was not expected this type of experience from such a named brand company.
I applied in-person. I interviewed at NIKE (Belgium Row, IL) in Apr 2022
Interview
Amazing interview , from good feedback from the recruiter and hiring manager and solid structure. Had loads if patience and allowed me sufficient time to respond and ensure my answers provided clarity to the unique questions.

Screening interview by phone with a recruiter, followed by a Zoom interview with the hiring manager.
Both people were smart, kind, and happy to share about their experience at NIKE. Both interviewers had considerable experience at NIKE and were able to provide context to the changes there.
