I applied online. I interviewed at JCPenney (Columbus, OH) in Apr 2022
Interview
The process was informative with the trio of folks I talked too. A lot of experience in logistics and detailed job description and expectations. Friendly, professional, welcoming environment. Tour of the 2+ million sq ft facility allowed me to see process and capture the culture and environment.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time when you played a hand in adopting an improvement and/or process?
Delayed, went well overall, basic and repetitive questions . Felt more like an interrogation rather than a conversation. The person who interviewed me , didn’t explain the role, or anything related to the store or what was expected.
The team that interviewed me were very polite and professional. The questions that they asked were relevant to the position I applied for. Their follow up contact was exactly on the timeline that they expressed to me which was very much appreciated.
