Interviewer was friendly, knowledgable, transparent and professional throughout. Interviewer also interviewed me at the same time as another candidate without telling me until I arrived for the interview, which was intentional. Interviewer also explained the joint interview would be mandatory. I don't know if it's a company wide thing, or if it's exclusive to seasonal hires, but it's something to keep in the back of your mind as a possibility.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The only thing out of the ordinary here was the interviewer asking me and my co-interviewee to grab a random object from a bag and pretend to sell a customer (the interviewer) on it.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at L.L. Bean (Bridgewater, NJ) in June 2025
Interview
Did not hire, went through 2 hour process for nothing. Pointless and frustrated. Application was easy enough. Demand you buy their clothes (at a discount but regardless). Would not apply again.
group interview. super relaxed. lots of young adults. asked about you questions like what you like to do outdoors and customer service scenarios. led by one manager. it was over in like 20 minutes
Group of applicants watch l.l. Bean video and then individual interviews with average questions about outdoors and store environment and scenarios that may pop up in daily tasks. Wait for a phone call in the next week
