I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Costco Wholesale (Issaquah, WA) in Apr 2022
Interview
Several rounds of interviews with various senior members of the team, mostly asking about experience with previous internships and college experience with a few easy technical questions. Saliva drug test at any warehouse location.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Give an example of a time you learned something outside of what you were required to.
The recruiter was extremely pushy in the beginning, constantly following up and trying to get me to consider the opportunity. However, as soon as I didn’t express interest, they completely disappeared. It feels like this behavior is more about the recruiter’s approach rather than Costco itself.

Question 1
They asked me about some conceptual topics related to the role, as well as to analyze a piece of code they provided. They wanted me to identify what was wrong with the code and suggest how to fix it.
