Phone interview which was a very basic screening type interview. He asked about my previous work history and why I wanted to work at REI. The interviewer asked to set up an in-person interview with himself and another manager right away. The two that interviewed me seemed very uninterested and distracted upon meeting them. Questions were read from a piece of paper and the whole process seemed rushed. Only one question about previous work experience. Neither of the interviewers even looked at my resumé. Mostly situational type questions about how you would handle certain situations on the sales floor. All of the questions were very basic for this type of interview so nothing caught me off guard. The majority of the interview was spent by them talking about the position and about their own careers at REI.

It was a pretty easy I’m person interview with 2 managers. It was about 30 minutes long and they asked a few questions. It was mostly basic leadership and customer service questions.
