Question 1
Are you self driven & able to create opportunities?
I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Crunch Fitness (New York, NY) in Apr 2013
Interview
I spoke to a personal trainer about hiring and he kindly introduced me to the fitness manager, I gave my resume and set up a time for a formal interview. The interview was short and to the point, why I was interested in becoming a trainer with no background in the field. They are often looking for trainers so as long as you can commit you are pretty much hired. The more certifications you have the better, especially in pay but you don't have to be certified right away to be hired. They do a lot of in-house training, and many times will offer discounted rates on certifications so it can be a good thing to start from scratch in a corporate setting.
I applied online. I interviewed at Crunch Fitness (Austin, TX) in May 2026
Interview
They were really nice and super chill both for the phone and in-person interview. When I showed up they gave me a tour of the gym and ironed out small details when I came in.

Question 1
They asked if I see myself pursuing a career in this role
Apparently, it is an extremely competitive environment. The interview felt like an investigation. They are expecting someone to spend the whole day at the gym, even though I apply as a part-time trainer.
