It is a group interview where you compete and participate in activities. It lasted about an hour and someone from the group got hired on the spot based off their performance during the activities.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Two activities. One of them is to build an outfit based on a random topic that a customer might share with you. The other activity is to ask open-ended questions to encourage meaningful conversations with customers.
I applied online. I interviewed at Zumiez (Lynnwood, WA) in Apr 2026
Interview
This was only for the phone screening interview, but it was fairly conversational and straightforward. The in-person interview still must be performed. It was over the internet, asking non-technical questions about work experiences and general behavior regarding tasks and productivity.
My interview was very laid back because I had already been working with the company for a few years as a sales associate so they mostly were asking me questions of how I would train new employees and how I would give helpful feedback. They also had me do a mock training where they pretended to be the sales associate and they would have me give them critiques which was very helpful
