I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Life Time (Atlanta, GA)
Interview
Group interview, followed by in person with department head and another in person with the general manager. Was expected to memorize and recite mission statement prior to GM interview. Department head was friendly and positive, and wanted to help prepare to show a good candidate to the GM.
Lifetime uses their own teaching system, so experience with their method was not expected or discussed. Previous experience with other training systems did factor in, however.

Question 1
How would you solve a hypothetical customer problem?
Very easy, straight forward questions about past swimming and teaching experience. Had one phone interview and then one in person interview. Once hired you take a multiple day training and a test at the end of it.

Question 1
Tell us about your past swim instructor experience
Not bad, basic questions, reciting Life Time mission statement, a few situational responses that you have to improvise. Interviewer was professional and felt interested in everything I had to say.
The interview process is a series of three interviews: the supervisor, the manager, and the overall head of the department. It is not nerve-wracking just more tiresome. Having a good swimming background and experience will make the interview process even more easier.
