Interview
The interviewing process was pretty simple. I was interviewed by the assistant manager. I went in to their break room and was asked about my experience in retail and where I saw myself with the company in the future. I was asked the "Why do you want to work here?" question and also what were my strengths and weaknesses. I was then given a second interview and I was asked about my strengths and to describe a time in which I went above and beyond my duties to help customers. There were a lot of questions pertaining to my experiences in retail. I would recommend just going in and being honest. It was a very simple interviewing process. The only thing I wish that would have happened was there only being ONE interview. I get major anxiety having to sit around and wait for an answer on whether I got the job or not but to have to wait to do a 2nd interview and then wait again for an answer was agonizing. It was a fantastic place to work, just the interviewing process was kind of long in my opinion.
Interview was good and recieved a call back next day, was shared around the store, and asked questions about customer service. This is great place to work for college students or a second job, as it is part time hours.
The process was not too long, with a screening interview by phone and an interview in-person with the store manager. They need to know about your communication skills and sales experiences.
