The interview process was quite straightforward and felt manageable. The interviewers were professional, and I felt at ease. However, there was no follow-up whatsoever after the interview concluded. I was informed that a decision would be made and I would be notified either way.

Confirmed questions1 question

I applied online through Workday. About a week later, I got emails saying the interview would be online, and I'd need to record myself answering some questions. They gave me time to prep and even provided practice questions on the website. After I sent in my video interview, they contacted me a few days later to say I got the job and that there would be an orientation before the season started.

Confirmed questions3 questions
  • Can you describe yourself using only three words?
  • Are you currently certified as a Lifeguard and also have your First-Aid/CPR certification? If not, can you get them soon?
  • Tell me about a time you delivered great customer service.

Behavioral Technical

The interview process was very professional. The two supervisors seemed genuinely invested in finding quality team members. They started with standard interview questions but frequently deviated to ask relevant questions about the position itself. I was impressed by their professionalism and genuine interest, even though I wasn't selected to move forward. I've experienced interviews where supervisors simply read from a script, were distracted, or acted unprofessionally. An interview is a two-way street; it's important to observe the interviewer's engagement. If they seem uninterested and are just reading questions, it might indicate a poorly built team, which could limit your own growth. These supervisors, however, clearly knew what they were looking for and appeared to have a strong team supporting them. I hope more interviewers adopt their approach.

  • They asked standard questions but often went off-script to probe deeper into my suitability for the role.
