I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at lululemon (Coquitlam, BC) in Sep 2013
Interview
Someone I know works there and said they were conducting group interviews so she added me to the list. There were 9 of us at the interview, we sat in the middle of the mall on couches. The two interviewers were very friendly and easy going. I had read through ALL the reviews posted on Glassdoor and compiled a list of possible questions and prepared for them since I'm not very good at questions such as tell us about a time when you went above and beyond or when did you act without integrity. I got a call back two days later for a one-on-one interview and I thought it went SO well! She made it seem like I had it. She said they conduct group interviews every single week (probably for their employee's to get practice) and that they were hiring 24 people for the xmas season. I was then called two days later to say they didn't have a spot for me. I was stunned and obviously disappointed BUT since I had read all the reviews on here I wasn't completely shocked, as I knew it was possible that it would seem like it went super well but then not work out. So that was a bummer but it obviously wasn't meant to be ;)

Question 1
What do you think the most difficult part will be about working here? Tell us about a goal you set and accomplished and tell us about your current goals and what you are currently doing to accomplish them.
Very laidback, lots of questions regarding personal and professional goals. First interview was an online group interview and the second was a one on one with a lead and a manager
