StockX application questions — all 22, word for word
StockX hires through Greenhouse. Beyond name, email and CV, its application form asks 22 questions, 20 of them required. 3 of them are required, fixed-choice questions about your eligibility to work. A cover letter is optional.
68 roles were open when this was last checked, mostly in operations and engineering. The questions below are the form's own wording, not a paraphrase.
What StockX has open
These are the roles the form was read from, as StockX titles them, in Bangalore, India, Detroit, MI, Remote, USA, Tempe, AZ:
- Category Manager

- Director, AI/ML Engineering
- Director, Category Growth (General Manager)

19 of the questions below are ones at most two of the 213 employers measured ask (median: 18), the least standard being “This position requires the team member to reside within 35 miles of our Detroit location to allow for in-person meetings and team collaboration. Do you currently live within 35 miles of Downtown Detroit?”.
The eligibility questions
These are required, and answered from a fixed list rather than in your own words: work authorisation, visa sponsorship or security clearance. Employers often use questions like these to filter applications automatically, but Greenhouse's public data does not say whether StockX does — so treat them as the answers most likely to matter, not as a verdict. Answer them honestly either way.

Before you apply
Have the answers to the required questions ready before you open the form — StockX's asks for 20 of them, and Greenhouse does not save a partial application by default. Settle the eligibility questions first — they are the ones with no room to elaborate, so knowing your answer before you start tells you whether the rest of the form is worth your time.
