I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Costco Wholesale
Interview
I applied online, and was asked for an in-person interview at the store within a week. Went to the store, waited a few minutes before two people came to interview me. Very basic questions. I was asked 4-5 questions, the two people left, waited a few minutes before the manager came in. Manager asked 1-2 questions max, about my availability regarding the days and hours I could work.
Then I was taken into another room where I was asked to do the saliva drug test. Signed a paper concerning the drug test, and the background check. Drug test results come up within 5 minutes. I was told they would contact me when the background check clears, around 3-4 days. Then I was free to go!
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Do you remember a time when you had a disagreement/miscommunication with a coworker, and how did you fix it?
Do you remember a time when you had to ask someone for help? How did you approach it, what was the outcome?
Can you remember a time when you exceeded expectations for a particular job or task? Explain.
Basic interview process with drug test and one in person interview. They have you come in the office and you talk to the general manager. They ask you to bring your resume and they got back to me the very next day with feedback.
I applied through other source. I interviewed at Costco Wholesale (Southfield, MI) in Jan 2026
Interview
Was not too hard of an interview. Asked a lot of scenario questions that will help the hiring team understand who you are, so be prepared to give real life examples. I used the STAR method to answer all the questions and I was hired on.
