Academy Sports + Outdoors Account Executive interview experience

After applying online, I got pulled into a group interview and then moved into an individual interview. The whole thing still didn’t take forever—my hiring process took about a week, and then they started training and getting me up to speed on the store products and services.

In the more personal part of the process, the questions leaned heavily on personal experiences and how I handled situations—what I’d learned from past moments like challenges and wins, and how I approached them. I also remember that one interview environment felt unusual for the setting, since the store wasn’t open yet
