San Jose, CAPosted Jun 2021 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I interviewed for the Account Executive role with a more traditional “manager + conversation” flow, and it felt average in difficulty with a quicker decision window.

In-person manager interview — I met with store leadership (a retail sales manager and a sales lead) and answered questions about my experience within REI and why I wanted the role.
On-demand video pre-step (in parallel with the overall process) — I previously completed a basic video-recorded stage focused on my background, customer service, and outdoors/passion for the brand.
Live follow-up (Teams/Zoom or manager chat) — I had a direct conversation with a manager who asked experience and character/behavior questions; in my case, I didn’t need a second interview. Outcome:
