Interview
Apply online, went through two interviews with Hotel Manager and Store Manager. Basic questions, why do you want to work here, what's your experience, etc. Managers are really casual, personable and friendly. It's an entry level position, and they train you on everything you need to know, so prior experience isn't necessary.
