      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at COS (Toronto, ON) in Feb 2018

      Interview

      It’s took way too long, 2 months. They didn’t get back to me for long periods between interviews. They didn’t tell me one of the interviews was a group interview before hand

      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at COS in Jun 2024

      Interview

      Applied Online and got an email from HR two weeks later about a group interview and an invitation to pick a scheduled date-however only one date was available and when asked about other possible dates, got an email back saying the date had actually been changed. Interviewed with 2-3 other people with visual manager and store manager. Less question based-more task based. 1st task: go around the store and write down three successful visual changes and 3 unsuccessful changes. 2nd task: Merchandise the store's area with the company booklet. 3rd task: given a random customer profile and asked to style+reasoning behind choices. Said they would reach out with results, but still waiting for a verdict. Overall, seems a bit disorganized with a lot of tasks being asked for a visual job, but visual manager was very great at constructive feedback

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Do you have open availability-since shifts are Monday-Friday 6/7am-4pm with some closing shifts and weekend shifts.
