Interview
It was an easy interview to make and it was easy for the interviewer to understand what I was saying about my experience with dog grooming as well as sales
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Petco (Sparks, NV) in Apr 2022
Interview
They put out a listing saying they needed a cashier so I applied for that position only to show up & be ambushed by the manager. They told me they we’re actually looking for a dog groomer which is an ENTIRELY different job & even though I love dogs, I’m not willing to risk being mauled for minimum wage everyday. They need to be upfront & honest in their listings because that was such a waste of time. Don’t pretend like you’re hiring cashiers just to trap applicants in awkward situations & pressure them to accept a (hazardous) position they didn’t apply for.

Quick and easy. Want to make sure you are knowledgeable and have experience in the field and a love for dogs. Pretty generic interview and not much concern for proof of work.
