I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at lululemon (Roseville, CA) in Oct 2015
Interview
I got an e-mail to come in for the next group interview, I accepted the interview. I went to the store and waited around for about 15 minutes until they were ready to start interviewing us. We were taken to a common area of the mall and put a few tables together. The interview was super informal and relaxed which was nice. There was a lot of chit chat among the interviewer and the other candidates throughout the interview, that wasn't related to the job or company. Before, during and after the interview, there was a few other candidates that obviously knew the interviewer, at that point, I knew I would not get an offer. Lululemon is a great company and I would love to work for them, but in my experience, there was a level of unprofessionalism that I did not think was appropriate. It seemed to me that the interviewer was playing favorites.
