The interview process was straightforward, involving two rounds with the operations manager and area manager. They inquired about my administrative background, organizational capabilities, and ability to multitask. They also asked me to simulate interacting with members. The whole thing took about 20 minutes and was quite easy.

After applying online, I got a call from the general manager about two days later to set up an in-person interview at the gym. I checked in at the front desk and waited about 10 minutes before meeting the manager in an office. The interview was one-on-one, about 25 to 30 minutes long. It was pretty informal but focused on my sales background, if I liked fitness, and if I'd be okay with membership quotas and doing outreach. The manager said the job involves cold calling, walk-ins, and sometimes promoting memberships outside the gym. They also talked about the commission structure and monthly targets. I was told I'd hear back in a few days.
