Pretty typical. What makes you a good candidate, examples of leadership in the co-op. REI generally promotes from within in the retail setting, and this is what that was. I was a specialist applying for the job.
I applied in-person. I interviewed at REI (Greenwood Village, Arapahoe, CO)
Interview
It was a pretty easy I’m person interview with 2 managers. It was about 30 minutes long and they asked a few questions. It was mostly basic leadership and customer service questions.
Laid back and thorough. Started with recorded video interview before setting up an in person interview. Questions were average and interview time was fairly short. Felt as though I was able to say what was needed

Question 1
When is a time you had to deliver a difficult message to a coworker?
Was set up as a group interview, but was very thorough, and I enjoyed real-life scenarios that were posed for us to work through as a group. Not always a fan of group interviews but was handled effectively.
