I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at REI (Des Moines, IA) in Sept 2016
Interview
This was a group interview and it felt extremely relaxed and casual. They asked great questions, made jokes, challenged everyone to answer genuinely, and made you feel very welcomed.
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.
