United StatesPosted May 2026 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I had a mostly relaxed, conversation-style interview journey for the Account Executive role, with a friendly store-led atmosphere over a few rounds across phone/Zoom and in-person.

Phone or virtual intro — I talked about my background and why the role, often through a short conversation; some paths also included a written or “record your answers” component.
Culture/role fit round (virtual or application-linked) — I answered questions similar to what I’d submitted, focusing on retail/customer experience, teamwork, and how I relate to REI culture.
Onsite: store leadership / managers (often group) — I met store leads and managers and participated in group-style discussion or activities to see how I work with others.
