Easy interview

Application

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at LOFT (Philadelphia, PA) in Jul 2018

Interview

Two rounds of interview. First was a general get to know you, very short. Seemed like they just wanted to get a grasp on your general appearance and availability. Second interview was basically the same thing but more in depth.

Easy interview

Application

I applied online. I interviewed at LOFT (Glen Ellyn, IL) in May 2018

Interview

Pretty easy interview and was offered a position on the spot. Despite not having any retail experience they still gave me a chance and asked fair questions. Though applications are online I recommend calling the store to make sure it went through because they were having some technical problems and I had to apply online a couple of times before it went through.
