I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at LA Fitness (Wheaton, MD) in Feb 2017
Interview
consisted of an informal 10 minute phone interview followed by 30 minute formal interview on location. Met with the district manager of the regional clubs and found her to be extremely ambitious and motivating. However, it seems that the business model of L.A. fitness is to widen their scope of members by any means necessary. Employee satisfaction and customer services did not seem to be the priority, as the ability to terminate new hires was more of a requirement than training them to provide high level customer service. While, this would have been an excellent opportunity if I were interested in climbing their corporate ladder, it did not align with my own experiences in good management practices.
Applied on indeed and had one on site in person interview with the district manager. Then had a follow up phone call interview with the regional operations manager. In person interview was about 30 Minoans phone call was less than 10.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Explain your previous experience and how it relates to the work you will be doing here ?
Did one interview then called and offered the position next day. After excepting the process wasn’t very professional. Didn’t hear from the manager for 2 weeks while he was on vacation. The manager could have told me I would be waiting two weeks to hear about a start date.
The interview process was pretty straight forward. Two interviews were required and I was asked very good questions about how I was the right fit for the job. After completing the first interview I was passed along for the second in which the same questions were asked so they could form two opinions and compare.
