I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Arhaus (Baltimore, MD) in Apr 2014
Interview
I went through two rounds of interviews with different managers. Each time it took many back and forth phone calls to schedule anything and both times the interviewer was 45 minutes late to see me.
All questions were rather basic. They did have my resume so they knew much of my past before I arrived.
Interview took place on the floor and had many interruptions. It lasted about 75 minutes, but a total of 120 minutes with the lateness described.
The dress was business casual. Two interviewers at once.
I asked very specific questions about the poor customer and employee reviews the company has (knowing I may lose my chance of being hired) but was assured over and over that all of those reviews were exaggerated and false. NOT SO.

Question 1
None, really. All questions were basic... How would you approach a customer on the sales floor? What and why is your availability? Experience in sales? They did not seem to worried or ask much about any past design experience- which was weird for a design job.
Easygoing. The staff was very kind, on time and receptive. The showroom was very well merchandised. The store overall is gorgeous and parking is easy. The overall process was quick and good.

Question 1
If I was comfortable with a commission based role.
I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Arhaus
Interview
Phone interview with recruiter, then quick video interview with regional manager. Most of my coworkers had in-person interviews, but that wouldn't work with my work schedule. Once I explained the schedule issues, they were willing to work around them.

Tell me about your background selling luxury furniture.
I applied online. I interviewed at Arhaus (West Hartford, CT) in Sep 2024
Interview
Simple and very straightforward, pretty much ask you about your drive and interests and why you want to be a part of the team. You just have to sell yourself and discuss the want to improve clients lives!
