The process was very easy and straightforward. I filled out an application online and recieved a call less than a week later. I was instructed to dress business-casual for the interview but most people dressed casual. I had a two-part interview (same day), followed by a drug test off-site.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
At yoir previous place of employment, how did you handle conflict or disagreements with co-workers?
First a phone screening, just to get to know your availability and about the job. Then you schedule an in person interview. You first interview with two managers of different departments, and then you interview with the head manager. If you pass, you take the drug test and background check,
its hard to get an interview, You can either go up there or apply online and it seems like they rarely get back with you. your application is in limbo.
I interviewed at Costco Wholesale (Auburn, New South Wales)
Interview
Panel interview, I think they place priority on potential hires based on work culture and whether you will fit the company culture since training can be taught on-job. There is not much scope on which area of merchandising you may be allocated ie. frozen foods, snacks, alcohol etc, so not much choice. It is fast-paced, demanding and requires physical labour.
