I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Costco Wholesale (San Francisco, CA) in Feb 2016
Interview
The interview process was brief and not an overtly long process. I was emailed to come in for an interview. It went on for about 10 minutes asking general questions related to customer service. The interview process overall was professional and none of the questions were too surprising or difficult.
I had 2 rounds of interviews with 3 managers. Only took about 1 hour per each one. Asked basic questions on why I would want the job. And how to handle the job.
It was very straight forward. I ended up getting the job. The interviewer was really nice, and it was a smooth hiring process. I have been working here a long time now, and I love it.
