Interview
Inviato CV online, colloquio in videochiamata zoom, colloquio tranquillo e piacevole, conversazione scorrevole con domande semplici inerente al settore del retail e in più domande personali sulle mie skills. In seguito, ho ricevuto l’offerta di lavoro, comunicato telefonicamente, dopo qualche giorno.
Good interview process, they were very nice and trying to help me out rather than catch me out. I heard back from them quickly with a phone call. They asked general sales questions as well as competency questions. They initially hire everyone on a temporary contract, presumably so they don't have to rehire anyone who has been a problem, but getting retired on a permanent basis is easy enough as long as you haven't caused any trouble while there.

Very good, staff very friendly and polite. I did not feel intimidated during the interview. I prepared well beforehand so I did well. I was asked about salary expectations and told them. I was also asked if I would be flexible with location
