      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Staples (New York, NY) in Jan 2019

      Interview

      The interview was very quick and to the point. The interviewer asked a series of questions that related to my experience. It was deliberately a one-sided interview without much room for my own questions.

      It was a four panel interview with a lot of questions from all 4 managers. It was a little overwhelming having that many managers asking interview questions at once. They were all very kind and helpful.
