I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at PetSmart (Toronto, ON) in May 2014
Interview
I applied online and received a call back within a few days. Met with one of the managers in the training ring and was asked very basic interview questions, along with what kind of animals I had previously owned. Afterwards I was made to hold a corn snake and a leopard gecko to show I was capable of handling the animals I would be caring for.
Was asked some basic questions pertaining to my knowledge of animals, customer service, etc. It was probably about 30 minutes long and pretty basic. I'd say it's the typical process for a first job for a teenager.
very simple, one on one interview. asks basic questions! felt like talking to a friend instead of having a tense interview. got to know my manager in the process which was nice.
