I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Bed Bath & Beyond in Jun 2017
Interview
Filled out a paper application in person and heard back to set up an interview under a week later. I interviewed with one of the department leads, who was very friendly but professional. (Over the years I was there, department leads were eliminated for both hardside & softside and either the manager or assistant manager would interview people.) Overall a normal and uneventful interviewing experience.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Who do you help first if you had to make the choice, the customer at the register or the one out on the sales floor?
was quick short and simple. Asked how to deal difficult customers and how I delt with the these customers. Basic customer service experience as well. Overall was one of the easiest job interviews.
It was pretty straightforward. They asked about why I wanted to work there and what experience I had. Then they asked about my available hours and things like that. It wasn’t too difficult or anything like that.
