Question 1
What kind of annual revenue did (the store you last worked at) average?
I applied online as an internal applicant. I did a zoom interview where I had to showcase my Make Up skills (1hr) and then proceeded to the next stage which was a standard interview plus a 3 month business plan (2hrs). I did get the job but the process is so long for something that might not be guaranteed.
3 steps of interview - first interview - a group interview, discussion on sales techniques and then applying highlighter to each other. 2nd stage - traffic stopping and selling on the shop floor- 3rd interview - an interview with the store manager - A very in-depth in interview for a retail job.
