Costco Wholesale interview questions

After applying online, you wait. Then if you qualify, you are called in for a first interview. 1st interview- They call and ask you to come in. You meet with 3 managers, all of which ask you the interview questions. The managers vary in ranking. They will be an assistant warehouse manager, and 2 managers from the department you're applying to. Questions were meant to analyze you're professionalism and how and what you know about the company, and why you are interested in working there. The interview lasted about half an hour. If they like you, they'll call you in 2-3 days asking you to come in a second interview. 2nd interview- This interview is set up the same way as the first. A one on three interview. The managers, which are different from the first set, ask you about your work ethic and how well you would preform in certain situations. Again, If they like you, they will call you in for a third interview. 3rd interview - A new set of managers ask you about the same questions asked in interviews 1 and 2. Very short. They offer you a position and ask you to come in for orientation.

My interview took place in the food court with two managers (two must be present during an interview to assure discrimination does not occur). The questions asked were pretty standard from what I could tell, e.g. "What was a time that you encountered confrontation in the workplace and how did you handle it?", "Describe a time when you had a good idea and how did you implement it?", "When have you had to multi-task in a workplace, how did you prioritize your actions?" and so on. After that interview, a second interview was scheduled for the next day. This interview was with a higher level manager and consisted of him telling me about what my position would entail and a bit about the company. I was also encouraged to ask questions about the company as well. At the end of the second interview I was offered the job and accepted it. The starting pay for my area is standard and non-negotiable at $11/hr (raises are automatic and are based on total hours worked for the company).
