Interview
I was called a few days after I followed up on my application. The interview was set for the next day. I showed up early and waited about 15 min for the manager. She was very friendly and made me very comfortable. She asked general question related to my prior customer service/retail jobs. At the end of the interview she told me all about the job including the hourly rate. She also stated the job was seasonal with a chance of a permanent position at the end.
About an hour after I left the store she called and offered me the job. I'm currently waiting for my background check to clear.
