I applied online. I interviewed at Hallmark (Houston, TX) in Jun 2015
Interview
Phone interview was very short 15min. The interviewer was very nice and asked simple questions to answer. Most of the questions are related to exactly what is posted in the job description. Can you do the job, lift heavy boxes, arrive by 8am to work for your shift, work before and after major holidays, can you start in 2 weeks, tell me about your last 2 jobs

Question 1
Explain the job description as it was just described to you?
Very easy. I had a scheduled phone appointment. I was asked very basic situational questions. I was offered a job at the end of the call. It was a good job.
A 15-minute phone interview is usually a quick, casual chat to see if you're a good fit before moving forward. It starts with a short intro and maybe a little small talk, then they’ll ask you to talk about your background and experience. After that, they might throw in a couple questions about your skills or how you’ve handled things at work. They’ll also tell you a bit about the job and the company. Near the end, you’ll get a chance to ask a question or two, and they’ll let you know what comes next. It’s more of a vibe check than a deep dive, so no need to stress too much.

It was a conversational phone interview manner. The interviewer was kind and informational. They were easy to talk to and it was short and to the point. They asked me when I would be available to start work and if I could do the job duties.
