I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Equinox
Interview
Walked into club, asked for manager and gave him my resume. Had phone interview the next day, then face to face interview the following week with both fitness managers. Got called back in for final interview with GM and fitness manager. Questions were not very difficult, mostly asked personality/behavior questions. Gave one case study. Final interview felt more like a conversation about my background and how comfortable I am with approaching people.

Question 1
Gave me a case study using information from the EFTI program that I had not been involved with yet. Only asked me what I would do for the first 5 minutes so not really challenging.
Virtual and in-person interviews; virtual interview was not too bad it was a recorded interview with situational questions and multiple choice while the in-person interview was mostly a vibe check and seeing how you would take on new clients.

I applied online. I interviewed at Equinox (Greenwich, CT)
Interview
I had a very positive phone interview experience with Equinox. The interviewer was professional, welcoming, and respectful of my time. They asked clear, thoughtful questions about my background and gave a great overview of the role, team expectations, and the company culture. The conversation felt organized and informative, and I appreciated how transparent they were about next steps in the process. Overall, it was a smooth and pleasant interview experience that reflected well on the company.
Super easy, had a round with a recruiter and then met with the manager. They were very transparent about pay and work required. I see a lot of negative reviews about pay, but at least from my experience the whole pay scale was clearly communicated and lined out.
