Multiple round interview with a lot of questions about your sneaker knowledge such as brand names, and shoe terminology. More credit if you were able to identify if a shoe looked “off” meaning you could spot a knockoff off the bat.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How would you handle a situation where you have a disagreement with a coworker and/or upper management?
I applied online. I interviewed at GOAT Group (Chicago, IL) in Sep 2023
Interview
Straightforward but you will need to know sneaker concepts like shoe brands, and key figures. I was also asked to name certain silhouettes and terms of shoes. This is a perfect job for a sneakerhead but be wary that your duties will extend past just shoes as it is a warehouse environment.
They email you about the application submitted, you get a phone call being interviewed about the job, confirmation for meeting, training at warehouse location, phone call/email if accepted. The entire procedure was pretty normal and done professionally.
