I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Ross Stores (New York, NY) in Mar 2019
Interview
Great phone call, followed up, paid for my hotel and flight to come fly out to nyc and have in person interviews. It was a very long day. I was still in my last semester of college, didn’t have much experience, yet I felt like I was expected to, even though they knew my resume. There were 5 of us and we had our own schedule of interviews and it was very professional, but extremely long. It’s a big company, so I understood why it was taken so seriously. I didn’t end up getting the job, but based off of my interviews, they were clearly looking for a more experienced candidate.

I went through and introduction interview, and was told that the main team lead was on vacation, but would go through formal interviews once they got back. I sent multiple emails in the coming month, even just to get an official NO. The job is still posted and I have never been contacted again.

Question 1
Why do you think you would be a good fit for this role?
The interview went ok but they never closed the loop with me/didn't tell me that they weren't going to proceed with me as a candidate. She asked me about the salary I wanted and seemed taken aback by what I asked for even though I don't think it was unreasonable.
