I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Costco Wholesale (Timnath, CO) in Sep 2019
Interview
Very basic interview questions, testing if you're a serious worker, willing to learn, and will ask for help if needed. Lasted maybe 15 minutes with a Manager and Assistant Manager present.

Question 1
Describe a time in your previous employment when you asked someone for help.
I applied online. I interviewed at Costco Wholesale (Sharpsburg, GA) in Oct 2025
Interview
Interviewers were friendly, and asked questions appropriate to the job. I was able to schedule it. They were on time for the interview and did not make me wait. From application to interview was several weeks, but that is not unusual from what I've experienced in my area.

Question 1
Tell about a time when a mistake was made, whether yours or someone else's, and how it was handled.
Very welcoming. Panel of people who just ask questions about life experiences and work history and how it may play a role in your job. Typically know on site if you get the job or not.

I applied online. I interviewed at Costco Wholesale (Alhambra, CA) in Nov 2024
Interview
My interview was at scheduled at 10 am. I arrived at 9:50. They told me to sit and wait in the break room and that they will call me in. I waited until 10:20 walked out the break room to ask if I was going to get called in yet. The same guy who told me to wait in the break room told me to keep waiting. I waited until 10:35 am and no one calls me. I waited for 45 minutes! It is incredibly rude to have a candidate wait that long. I had another appointment at 11:30 am so I just walked out at around 10:35. Very unprofessional.
