I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at LA Fitness (Houston, TX) in Jan 2019
Interview
Interview process was quick and easy. The VP and I seemed to hit it off, and I was told I'd get a call for a position within twenty-four to forty-eight hours. Weeks would go by and I'd hear nothing. Even after I reached out to him letting him know that I was still interested.
The catch? This has happened to me THREE times with this company alone! I applied three times and got ghosted all three times. All with promises that I'd hear back soon.
So if you're applying here, don't be surprised if you get ghosted. And my advice to the VP? Please keep your word when you tell someone you'll contact them. I would rather be told I didn't get the job than be ghosted.
The interviewer was very nice. He asked me questions about my personal training history and why I want to be a trainer. He asked a couple more questions about my background. I felt good after leaving the interview. I received a call to let me know I got the job and the next steps for onboarding.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What led you into this profession as a personal trainer? What's your story?
Great interview process. Fast and efficient. More like a screening and relaying info than an in depth interview. They didn’t really ask me questions about my qualifications or experience. Mostly on explaining the job process.
Everything was rushed. The vp of sales immediately started sexually harassing me. I complained to their headquarters. I never got paid for the time that I worked. I tried to file a claim with the EEOC.
