Know what it looks for.

Nike is the world's largest athletic footwear and apparel company, headquartered in Beaverton, Oregon, with a mission to bring inspiration and innovation to every athlete in the world. Founded in 1964 by Phil Knight and track coach Bill Bowerman, Nike is now in the middle of a high-stakes turnaround under returning CEO Elliott Hill, whose "Win Now" strategy is rebuilding wholesale partnerships, refocusing on five sport-led fields of play, and rebooting the brand storytelling that made the Swoosh iconic. Nike behavioral interviews lean heavily on the company's 11 Maxims, a deep cultural attachment to athletes, and the ability to translate "we are on the offense — always" into your own working stories.
