I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Six Flags (Saint Louis, MO) in Apr 2015
Interview
Applied online. Waited 5 days with no response so I called to inquire about my application. I was offered an interview. Upon entering HR I was given a clipboard with the front being for my personal information and the back being a math test. The math test was incredibly simple, only containing questions about making change. I was then told to sit and wait as I was a few minutes early. When I was called in for my interview I was asked a few question about my personal info and was given papers to initial. I was then asked a few situation questions and told to wait for a supervisor. The supervisor entered and told me that although a second interview is standard, It would not be necessary for me. I was then offered the job and sent back to the HR desk. I received a packet of paperwork to fill out and bring back with my social security card. As I had my card with me I filled out the papers there and brought them back to the desk. I then received my Discovery Info Packet and Discovery date.

Depending on how desperate they'll be, they'll just immediately hire you on the spot through email when you apply. No phone screening or anything. Took me about a week to hear back. I applied in the spring.
Interview simple, will work you hard for low pay, especially when the weather is hot. But just normal questions, as in making sure ypi’re prepared and alert for the position at hand
I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Six Flags (Santa Clarita) in Aug 2025
Interview
Quick and easy, I stumbled through my words and they still let me on through. Most important thing is availability, which I unfortunately didn’t meet. But if they have slots available, you’re ambulatory or even in you have a pulse, they’ll take you.
