I applied in-person. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at PetSmart (Austin, TX)
Interview
There were three interviews. I can't remember who I interviewed with first, but I think it was one of the store managers. The second interview was done by an alternate store manager. The third was conducted by the salon manager. The steps were very simple and straightforward. Interview first and offer of employment and pay scale, background check and drug screening next and final communication regarding scheduling for training. The store staff was consistently timely in returning calls and I was able to get through to a manager almost immediately. The final meeting had to do with scheduling on-boarding training, which is paid. The overall experience was an easy one. They were thorough in explaining their expectations and commitment to their employees.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
One of the questions had to do with my experience working with dogs. Since I had no prior professional grooming experience it was an opportunity to talk about my love of dogs and my experiences with the dogs I'd known and fostered.
