This was just the pre screen call, however, this company pay ranges are extremely low and ask for many years of required experience. The company is great, and I appreciated the recruiter being honest, but every position that could have been a fit had a salary below 60k which is absurd to me. My salary ranges in between 85-100k.
I applied through college or university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Michaels (Irving, TX) in Dec 2019
Interview
They came to my University, I did a soft-interview onsite the campus than got a follow-up interview at their HQ office, in which I interviewed with 3 different members of their merchandising/ product category managers. It was a pretty tough interview, every interview was 30mins each, and every interviewer was very serious, except the last one so it was kinda hard to feel relaxed and welcome.
