Interview
When I got there the manger was at lunch so I had to wait. For ten min when she got there. She was friendly n nice. The interview was easy n calm. They went threw what It takes to be a bather what to expect n how to act. To tales to the manger n the assistant manager on the same day. I believe what got me the job was when I told them that I wanted to be a groomer. After that I was handed to job. I also did my job test the same day.
canceled my interview same day, after making a huge deal about when it would be. they called me 20 minutes before I was supposed to be there to tell me nevermind.
I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at PetSmart (Santee, CA) in Nov 2021
Interview
Good starting pay $15.25, but its normally $15. Wanted to be a stocker, but was convinced to work as a bather being told I could get full time. Lies! I was not told I was going to be starting out as part time and that id be having to wait months at a time to become a groomer, which is a 2 year contract. Only then your full time. This would be fairly okay, if I didn't have my hours cut so much after the holidays. Thats why they wanted me in the salon in the first place.
