I applied online. The process took 6 days. I interviewed at Six Flags (Upper Marlboro, MD) in May 2013
Interview
I applied online via the Six Flags career website. I received a call from HR saying that I could come in for an interview at my earliest convenience (they consistently hold open interviews during the beginning of the season). I had an individual interview and then a few of us were brought in for a group interview. We answered some questions, played some "games" and I think they gauged our personalities during this session. We were then asked to split into groups (one group had been accepted, the other(s) had not). My job required further training (lifeguarding), which we did after the initial acceptance the week after. The process took about a week total to get the offer and begin training.

Question 1
How would you handle an unhappy guest in the park?
It was overall an okay job and job interview . Not too long. Good first time job. Pay was okay for a first time job. Summers were really hot which made shifts sometime bad.
I applied through other source. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Six Flags (Jackson, NJ)
Interview
In person interview, several others awaiting interview in parallel but seam less none the less. They were super nice and actual interview was very straight f o r wa rd .
Not bad, it was pretty easy and smooth process. I had three managers speak to me and they were very nice and professional. I would recommend six flags! Not too many hard questions
