I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Jet (Hoboken, NJ) in Sep 2018
Interview
> I was contacted through LinkedIn & scheduled for a phone interview
>Had the phone interview, very basic questions -- tell me about your resume, etc etc
>They sent me this crazy little game that you need to download an app to play, its their form of a test.. it was actually pretty fun so don't stress about it, but I still have no idea what purpose it served.
>Finally, I got invited to the final interview in Hoboken, NJ -- they flew me out & provided a hotel stay which was very nice. When I got there the next day, I arrived 25 minutes early (requested to arrive early for an office tour) however, that did not happen because the HR rep supposed to be guiding me wasn't there and the other person taking over didn't know she was supposed to, so it was a bit of an awkward start. Once I finally got into my room I had 3 30 min 1:1 interviews with Category Managers, some of the questions I've listed below.
Interview 1. 3 simple questions. Interview 2. UX case study that was pretty awkward because it was a screenshot of a web checkout of AAA batteries (I was applying for a fashion role) and it was two pictures that the interviewer had to keep scrolling back and forth at my request. Then interview 3 was a pricing case that I described below.
>After my interviews I sat in the room for 5ish minutes until I was kicked out by another meeting and had to sit in the hallway for roughly 15 minutes until my HR rep came back to get me. I was then taken to a very casual panel session with the other two candidates and tow Category Specialists where we could ask them questions, but they said it wasn't part of the actual interview. Then the CS's didn't really know what to do with us after so they just walked us to the elevator and we left.
>Looking back, it was a pretty awkward and unusual experience as far as interviews have gone. Overall, the company seems great, has a cool atmosphere and whatnot. I thought the interview went pretty well, but I ended up not getting the position, which I was okay with. I emailed them to get some feedback on what I could improve on, but never heard back. I really couldn't say what exactly they are looking for in a candidate, but best of luck to anyone applying!! I hope this review helps :)
Interview questions [3]
Question 1
Interview 1:
-Name a time you failed
-Name a time you went above and beyond
-Name a time you had to think outside of the box
Interview 2:
UX case study about a page of batteries on the Walmart checkout page, not Jet. They were asking you what was missing on the web page and what you might change.
>It had very little direction as to what they were looking for. Pretty vague so definitely study hard on what a webpage checkout looks like (especially Walmart's). It honestly just looked like a screenshot of a webpage with stuff photoshopped out lol
Interview 3:
Pricing case study asking about if a Competitor Company sells a hat for $20 in store and Walmart sells the hat for $10 in store, how should they price it online?
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Jet (San Bruno, CA) in Aug 2018
Interview
Was contacted by an internal recruiter. Brief phone call. Provided a mobile game as a part of process. Flown out to California location for interview. Very unorganized. Interviewers read questions off of a computer or sheet of paper. One interviewer had to re-read the questions because she did not fully understand them herself.

Question 1
Typical behavioral questions. 3 part interview. Behavioral. Attention to detail. Hypothetical questions (that the interviewer was confused on.)
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Jet (Pedricktown, NJ) in Sep 2018
Interview
I did a fifteen minute phone interview and was invited to an in-person interview. I got there and the office seemed really nice and so did the people. I did a 20-ish minute interview with one person that kind of seemed like an airhead to be quite honest, than another 20-ish minute interview with two people, one of which was the person I did the phone interview with. I was asked literally the same exact questions I was asked on the phone. The two interviewers were dressed completely sloppy, unprofessional. I then left and sent a follow up email with no response from the HR manager, who was the phone interviewer and in person interviewer. Now not to sound petty, but I drove about an hour and half for this interview and got stuck in traffic from an accident which added an extra hour to my drive, do you think she could have sent me an email back? Nope, got some generic email saying I was not a good fit. I mean I guess maybe I am just too professional to work there considering I was not wearing jeans and a sloppy shirt like everyone else. I was also supposed to be emailed an assessment before the interview, that I was never sent. All in all, a waste of my time.
