Multiple rounds, friendly interviewers. I had a phone interview first, then an in-person with the store manager. The last round was another phone interview, this time with the district manager
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at The Vitamin Shoppe in Mar 2017
Interview
The process took exactly two weeks, from the day I applied to the day I got offered the position. It was a three interview process. Had an in-store interview with an assistant manager and the manager, which went pretty well and lasted roughly 45 minutes. I got a call from a different store manager a few days later asking to do a follow-up interview, which we decided to do right then and there on the phone. It only lasted about 10-15 minutes but went well. Then I got a call the next day from the district manager asking to do a final interview, which only took about 20 minutes. The questions were pretty mixed, with some situational, some behavioral, asking about past employment, past experience, and a few questions on product/supplement knowledge. All in all, be upbeat, positive, energetic and personable throughout the interviews.

Question 1
There aren't any unexpected questions if you've been through the standard interview process before. It would be helpful, though, to differentiate why you want a position specifically at Vitamin Shoppe and not another/similar supplement company.
The interview was super relaxed but very professional. They didn't expect me to "know everything," instead they emphasized a willingness to learn and work as a team. It was very reassuring and I got a great vibe from both the manager and assistant manager.

I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at The Vitamin Shoppe (Las Vegas, NV) in Mar 2021
Interview
Application was online and simple. We set up an interview with the SM and then set up a second interview with the DM. Sometimes they will combine these into one interview.
