Old school interviewing at its worst. All they wanted was a one way interview. They need to stop asking for examples of this and that and actually have a conversation where they are learning about the skill set of the individual they are speaking with. I felt like they only want to meet with me to compare what my current company does.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Ross Stores
Interview
Long! Many steps. Lots of meetings and time between. But recruiter was great, stepped me through what to expect. Behavioral interviews at each step "Tell me about a time you faced a difficult situation..." etc. Took several months from first interview to offer. But I was employed and not actively looking so it was fine for me.

Question 1
All behavioral and differed from interviewer to interviewer.
Very lengthy interview process. Had to go through about 4 people for an entry level role. Could not interview all on the same day. Interviews were all 1 hour long even when there wasnt much left to say. Interviewers asked same questions over and over again.
