Disregarded my previous experience as a framer & top sales associate. Offered me very low pay in comparison to others getting hired, who had no experience.

Brief with Frame Manager and other associate. Manager needed worker desperately and I was very competent and needed a job desperately. I was very familiar with fine art handling and framing, the job was easy to get.
I applied in-person. I interviewed at Michaels in Apr 2017
Interview
I was called to come in for an interview but when I arrived the manager was caught up with regional managers that had arrived that day. He rescheduled a week later. When I showed up the next week he was again busy with a pressing matter and rescheduled for the following Tuesday. When I showed up the following Tuesday he was again busy with another matter and instead of a formal interview told me that he appreciated my willingness to come in and interview and offered me a job right on the spot.
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Michaels in Sep 2014
Interview
I applied online and received a call about a month later. I did the general application, but was chosen for a framing interview because of my degree in art (BA). The lady giving the interview was very friendly. She showed me a piece of art, then had me select several mats and frames that would look good -- a test of color and design competency. She told me that corporate needed someone who could do a hard sell on the more expensive frame choices. She asked me if I was that person (I'm not, and she said she wasn't either actually). She also needed someone to work primarily weekends, which I wasn't overly enthusiastic about. I was one of three candidates for the position.

Question 1
