different locations have different management so everything is based on the managers willingness to be honest.
Review from Operations Dept
Inviting to be yourself and accepted to do work.
Review from Sales Dept
Straightforward and professional. I appreciated the clear expectations, timely communication, and the focus on real-world experience. It felt like they genuinely wanted to understand my strengths and how I could contribute to the team. That made me feel respected and confident going in.
Seeing how enthusiastic the interviewers were about the company. They sold me on how valued the Costco employee is.
The hiring managers recognized and valued the experience and wisdom I was bringing to the company.
I knew the day of that i got the job. But at both times i had a interview friends put in a good word before hand
Open and warm. The interview was straightforward.
Meeting the new people that are trying to get with the company
Young supervisor just reading off a script
I am told immediately after what I did well at during my interview.
It was very detailed. The team that did my interview were nice.
It was quick and painless with the 1st and 2nd interviews being done at once with 2 managers.
They kept it short and and simple
I already knew the managers because I worked for CDS. It was a pleasant interview process.
I was hired as the independent contract

Review from Product Dept
People need to be trained better
Review from Customer Success Dept
Hire people that knpw what thier talking about
Nothing off the top of my head, it's valuable to have SMEs on the interiew
Let me choose my department
Need to have a room for exchange of private information. Not hold it in a public food bar.
I wish the "hiring pool" at my company doesn't intentionally exclude non-minorities like myself. In my opinion hiring should be based on merit, not appearance.
Lack of transparency within the company
Hire safer forklift drivers immediately
They make people come babk days on end cause agm are to busy . No ones on the same page
More simple questions about the character of a person
First, stoppong by been intimidating everytime (with two interviewers for one employee). Everytime, you have the impressions to getting into a court trial.
Review from Product Dept
The process isn't bad, but the pool and quality of personel is woeful. Retail only attracts immigrants in need of security.
Treat them fairly as soon as possible
Using my skills and qualifications to offer me an actual position that fits my expectations and requirements.
Making it not so strict and more private,. They interviewed me in the food court so I had no privacy
The manager interviewing me could not spell certain basic words and so I had to right on my own report for her. The questions were almost more school related.
More efficient and organized last time it seems like no one knew what they were doing
