I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at lululemon (Auckland, Auckland) in Nov 2013
Interview
Applied online. When I didn't hear anything for several days, I went into the store to ask to speak to a manager, who I was not able to speak with. I got a call later that afternoon for a group interview. Found that to be very hard and frustrating. There was about 6 of us all trying to impress for the same job. The two managers asked several basic questions; What are your goals? Why lululemon. I tried to answer honestly and outlined my yoga teacher training and past job experiences, and was very enthusiastic as they are high energy people.
I didn't hear anything back so I emailed thanking them for interviewing me and I was given a call back about 10 minutes later. I was offered a second round interview, which was a 1 on 1. We just chatted and it was much more casual, but same basic questions. I was given a call back later that day with a job offer.
