      Customer Service Specialist Interview

      Anonymous employee
      Lithonia, GA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Nordstrom (Lithonia, GA) in Jun 2015

      Interview

      I applied on careers.norstrom.com on 6/3, got an email back that night to select an interview date, my interview was the 6/11, I was sent an assessment after the interview (the assessment is very important. It determines if you get the job or not. It's important you pass the assessment. PAY ATTENTION) after the assessment I was sent an email for my background check on 6/15. On 6/17 I got a call to set up my virtual interview, I took the virtual interview on 06/18. On 06/19 I was offered the job. Once you pass the first interview and the assessment you're in the door. Be you and be truthful.
