No Offer – Reviewed May 10, 2013
Interview Details – Met a recruiter at a mixer and got set up with a job opportunity that wasn't exactly appropriate for me...which is probably why I didn't end up getting it in the end. Had a phone interview with a panel of 3 from the department. Most of the interview consisted of me talking about my various experiences.

Quality Assurance Role at NIKE
Declined Offer – Reviewed May 8, 2013
Interview Details –
Initial communication was an email from a recruiter to set up an initial phone screen. Phone screen with the recruiter lasted a little over 20 minutes, basically walked through resume and went over any initial questions I had.
About two weeks later had a longer, more detailed phone interview with the hiring manager. More in depth questions about my previous work experience and also asked some behavioral questions.
A few days after the second phone interview I had a Skype chat with 4 people (hiring manager and potential coworkers) that lasted about 45 minutes. Questions in that one focused on relating my experience to Nike's values. Offer call came a few days after the Skype interview.
Interview Question – Nothing too unexpected, since I had stories to illustrate company values ready going in. Answer Question

Sales Associate at NIKE
Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Round Rock, TX Aug 2011 – Reviewed Apr 26, 2013
Interview Details – Apply online, got a call for interview. Interview was very standard questions with one manager, had to go home and fill out an online background check form. After that was approved got the job offer. Didn't find out pay until first day of orientation. Hired on as a seasonal employee but was offered a permanent part time job due to good performance. They do this so they can weed out the poor quality employees easily.
Interview Question – Several questions along the lines of "tell me about a time when you....." Answer Question
Negotiation Details – No negotiation, everyone who was hired on at the same time got the same pay.

Customer Service Manager at NIKE
No Offer – Reviewed Mar 28, 2013
Interview Details – Extremely efficient and structured so prep, prep, prep. Three panel members have a list of questions and space to write their observations with each person taking taking turns in asking questions. Stop, think, and be concise. Preparation will help you to ensure that the items you want to mention can be intertwined into your answers.
Interview Question – Specific examples were needed so if you don't get them in there clearly and make sure that you have fully answered the question, you're sunk. Answer Question
