Interview
Interview was cake. Your standard interview process, just one day cut and dry. As long as you have an open mind about everything, are flexible with hours and departments backcountry is an awesome place to work. You have to be able to deal with change, everyday is something different or new so you have to be open minded about it!

Interview
The interview was very easy and took about 10 minutes. Very chill. Was clear in interview that there is high turnover and they need people who can show up, do the work, and accept the fact the work is lame/boring. People basically do the job for the discounts.

Very easy to get hired here, show up 10 minutes early, dress like you spend time outdoors, smile and act excited to learn. They will give you a tour of the building; act interested. Be calm. They are nice when interviewing you.

After that they have you come in for a one on one interview and ask more or less the same questions with a few typical interview questions.
