I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Public Storage (Los Angeles, CA) in Dec 2012
Interview
They want to make sure you have worked in sales and have experience to push people to buy things they don't want to since that's what they will be making you do. They will pick pick something random like a lock, phone, or pen and ask you to sell it to them... note you must have a drivers licence and have a car.
Overall very pleasant interview experience and was offered the position of relief manager. Initial in- person interview with distrcit manager was about 30 minutes, and was followed up by a second phone interview with the regional manager.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
"Are you okay with 50% of your day being spent outdoors and the other 50 % in the office?"
Straight forward, honest, and let’s you know all responsibilities upfront. No surprises when I started working. Great overall experience with the hiring manager and she was very supportive. I was late to my interview due to my own fault and she still allowed me to interview.
easy , fast , very informant from what is to be expected and where to be working at different locations. manager really hears you out and ask if anything is needed to be worked for your schedule before hire
