Interview
You are brought into a room with a handful of other candidates and asked questions as a group such as how you'd handle difficult situations in the park. There's usually 2 supervisors running it and you are judged based on your answers and how you talk in front of the group. This job is very collaborative, so you must be able to function and think things through as a team, and that's the ability they're looking for as well as drive in the interview.

I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Six Flags (Arlington, TX) in Jun 2017
Interview
We filled out paper work in a cramped corner of the break"room" building. We were asked very basic questions, and as long as you did not sound cocky you were basically handed the job. From there you take a week (2-3 day) long class for basic training along with swim tests. Then you have to take one more class before you are officially hired.
