I applied online. I interviewed at Life Time (Bolingbrook, IL) in May 2021
Interview
Virtual interview followed by practical interview if successful. Practical interview involves role-playing client-trainer scenario and designing/implementing workout based on client goals/limitations. After role play is complete, interviewee must demonstrate sales skills by "walking the floor" and talking to 5 strangers with the goal of having them sign up for a free training session.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
"This is not your typical 9-5 desk job. How confident do you feel working long hours?"
Wonderful, straight to the point of they already can see you in the team, very friendly team, beautiful establishment and good work opportunity overall, just have to put in the work
I applied in-person. I interviewed at Life Time (Dallas, TX) in Nov 2025
Interview
Pretty direct. Practical questions and historical experience and how it would contribute to LifeTime. It was also more like a conversation rather than an interview. A very kind but direct conversation
Pretty straightforward interview process, first a get to know you interview and then a practical leading my future manager through a workout based on different goals and complications they presented.
