      Manager In Training Interview

      Mar 17, 2014
      Anonymous employee
      Minneapolis, MN
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through college or university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Kohl's (Minneapolis, MN) in Jan 2012

      Interview

      I met a recruiter and an event and spoke to them at length. I submitted my resume and was contacted for an interview. I was interviewed twice in one day on campus and was then invited to the final interview with the district and regional managers. I was again interviewed twice and had to do a quick project with fellow interviewees.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      The project was the most unexpected element, we were given a typical issue of a kohl's store and given 10 minutes to come up with a solution in a team and then present it to our interviewers. Our interviewers watched as we discussed ideas in teams and then as we presented.

      Manager-In-Training Interview

      Anonymous employee
      Blacksburg, VA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Kohl's (Blacksburg, VA) in Oct 2018

      Interview

      It was very simple and was actually enjoyable. Everyone I interviewed with was super friendly and easy to talk to! I first had a one on one interview with a nearby store manager. Then my second interview came a few weeks later. It was a group interview with an easy case study/ presentation. Then there were two one on one interviews with a store manager and then the Division Manager.

      I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Kohl's (Wilmington, DE) in Mar 2018

      The interviewer was nice and friendly. I left with positive feeling but it was heartbreaking to realize when I didn't get the job, especially when I was really looking forward to it.

      Manager In Training Interview

      Feb 19, 2017
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Kohl's in Feb 2017

      Interview

      The interview process was very negative. There were two women and one of them did not seem interested in me at all. She seemed to force my answers to be short when she would look down at her paper and start saying her next question. I did not feel comfortable during the interview and she made me just want to walk out the door. She was not a very good interviewer.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Who do you see as a leader?
