I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Bed Bath & Beyond (Chicago, IL) in Jan 2012
Interview
Interview was easy and short. Focused on customer service. Retail interview for a part time position so it was more about your personality then skills. They wanted to gauge you're friendliness and how you interact with the people around you. Another very important factor was your availability. The more open you're availability the more likely you will get a job offer.
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.
