I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at LA Fitness (Richfield, MN) in Sep 2016
Interview
Submitted my resume and was called the next day. I went in for an interview and it was extremely relaxed. The Operations Manager talked a lot about his salary and how the position is largely based on commission. As a operations manager you rely largely on the sales team to help you make commission towards your salary. The OMIT makes $12 an hour and then $13 when promoted to Operations manager. You make commission two different ways- when you sell a new membership, or get people to renew/upgrade their existing membership. The position seemed too sales based versus operating and assisting the actual club day to day.

I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at LA Fitness (Houston, TX) in Jan 2014
Interview
First interview is with the General Manager of the location if applying for membership sales. If interview goes well, you will typically have a second interview with the District Vice President. If you made it to the 2nd interview, it means the GM likes you and now its up to the VP.
Every interview with the GM is different as they have no guidelines to go from. So it could be 100% different from someone else.
