I applied online. I interviewed at Athleta (Longmeadow, MA) in May 2021
Interview
I had a phone interview with the general manager (because this is a new store that hasn't had it's first opening) who was so chill it felt like I was chatting with a friend. I know interviews can be nerve wracking but overall this was a good experience because she made me feel comfortable throughout the call.
