Long...There were 3 interviews
1) Phone interview - someone calls from a remote location, easy , asks about why you have interest in position, what experience would qualify you, etc. 10 mins tops
Group interview - a couple ice breakers, going around room telling the group about yourself, moved to a group fitness rooms and split into smaller groups to do a case study and present how we would set up a program for 2 clients - hour and a half
One-on-one interview with manager - some hard questions, exhausting just taking for so long, strengths, weaknesses, times you faced a challenge and handled it, etc. 45 mins

Question 1
How would you approach a potential client on the floor with poor form
Virtual and in-person interviews; virtual interview was not too bad it was a recorded interview with situational questions and multiple choice while the in-person interview was mostly a vibe check and seeing how you would take on new clients.

Question 1
One thing they asked about was how you deal with difficult clients?
I applied online. I interviewed at Equinox (Greenwich, CT)
Interview
I had a very positive phone interview experience with Equinox. The interviewer was professional, welcoming, and respectful of my time. They asked clear, thoughtful questions about my background and gave a great overview of the role, team expectations, and the company culture. The conversation felt organized and informative, and I appreciated how transparent they were about next steps in the process. Overall, it was a smooth and pleasant interview experience that reflected well on the company.
Super easy, had a round with a recruiter and then met with the manager. They were very transparent about pay and work required. I see a lot of negative reviews about pay, but at least from my experience the whole pay scale was clearly communicated and lined out.
