Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about where you handled a difficult customer.
Easy , straight forward questions. Didn't last more than 20-30 minutes. It's honestly quite difficult to screw up. Do some basic research and you'll be fine. It also ends with a mouth swab drug test.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Costco Wholesale (Montclair, CA) in Apr 2023
Interview
Straight forward and formal. I would say on the easier side. I would highly recommend applying here. Costco also has amazing benefits for part time and full time employees which makes it a very competitive work place.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Costco Wholesale (Montréal-Est, QC) in Apr 2019
Interview
Very casual and professional, described all the benefits and all the tasks of the role. The interview was with 2 managers and lasted 20 minutes. They asked about 10 questions, very simple questions about my experience and about my customer service.
