I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Costco Wholesale (Denver, CO) in Jan 2024
Interview
First round I met with two managers. Was asked standard questions about customer service experience, handling difficult situations, and understanding of the role. Second round was one on one with a manager and they asked more in-depth questions around my experience and also talked about costco's values.

Question 1
"Can you describe a time when you provided excellent customer service?"
Easy interview, ask the basic questions and seems like they're mostly looking for a team fit. Everyone was very nice that I interviewed with. When you're waiting for the person you're going to interview in the breakroom, the other costco employees were very nice and welcoming. Even wished me good luck!
