About Costco PrepPacks™

JobTestPrep helps you in preparing for Costco's recruitment processes. The different preparation packages on this page are designed to offer you an in-depth understanding of the tests you may come to take as part of the Costco application process.


Costco Situational Judgement Tests

Situational Judgement Tests (SJT) are psychological assessments where you are presented with hypothetical, yet realistic, scenarios related to the job in which you are applying. SJTs have become a popular tool used by assessment companies, employers, and organizations to evaluate the behavioral and cognitive abilities of candidates when introduced with daily work-related situations.


Costco Personality Tests

There are different kinds of questions found on personality assessment tests. When given a statement with extreme statements such as "always" and "never," you should answer them with less extreme answers such as "agree" and "not strongly agree." However, there are times during a personality test in which you should choose "strongly agree" or "strongly disagree.

Costco Interview Process

There are several types of interviews you may be expected to participate in prior to being offered the job you have applied for; they are:

  • Phone Interview: This type of interview will last anywhere from 10-30 minutes. You should expect to be asked about your availability, salary expectations/ requirements, your prior work history and experience, as well as what you know about the company and the position being offered.
  • Video Interview: The popularity of this type of interview is growing. You will either complete your interview during a Skype session, or by following a link to an interview platform provided to you by the company. Some video interviews are pre-recorded interviews, which means there is no live interviewer on the other end.

Case Interview: In this type of interview you will be posed a question, challenge, or situation that you will be expected to solve. These types of interviews are either conducted individually or in groups.

  • Puzzle Interview: Challenging puzzles and riddles are often part of the recruitment process for some companies. You will be expected to think creatively and outside of the box in order to pass this type of interview successfully.
  • Lunch Interview: This type of interview can be very casual and allows interviewers the opportunity to get to know an applicant’s background, qualifications, and personality in a more relaxed environment.

Preparing for each type of interview beforehand will give an undeniable advantage with regard when answering questions posed to you by your interviewer, as well as the types of behaviors you should exhibit.


Are There Right or Wrong Answers Disagree in the Costco Personality Tests?

Those who administer personality assessment tests claim there are no "right" or "wrong" answers and often refer to personality tests as personality "questionnaires" instead of "tests." This is untrue. A personality assessment serves as a tool to help find the person who fulfill the criteria of a specific position. Therefore, there are right and wrong answers associated with specific positions. Preparing for the personality test in advance will allow you to become well-acquainted with the types of questions asked and what the optimal answers are.

What should I Emphasize During my Costco Interview?

Typically you should emphasize why you are the correct choice for the job. You should bring in good examples from past experiences to show that you have the skills needed to succeed. Use the STAR method to answer questions as this provides a complete picture and is an engaging way to answer.

What is Costco Hiring Process Like?

Costco hiring processes follow similar patterns for each type of recruitment, but the exercises you will encounter depend on the level you are applying to. There are also some differences at each level between technical recruitment and business roles. You can be requested to attend an interview and complete aptitude tests.
