I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at lululemon (Washington, DC)
Interview
Three interviews, not back to back. First interview is in a group setting with other applicants. You might be required to do a "sweat date", meaning workout with the managers during an interview. The fact the interviews are not back to back forces applicants to waste time and money on transportation. This shows that Lululemon managers put their time first and do not respect applicants' time. Three separate interviews is excessive. Other jobs with similar pay and more responsibilities only require a phone interview followed by a panel interview, a much more efficient approach and just as effective. Essentially, Lululemon thinks it is more than a retail company, which it might be, but it is not Google or Amazon, so it should try to hire like them.
