Interview
The interview took place with the studio manager. She asked the basic interview questions and then went over the basics of the job. You are hired for you sales, not photography. If you have a photography background they may consider that a bonus, but they have their own training, so it isn't that important.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
She asked some simple math equations (50% of 200; 25% off).
Interview process was laid back and very enjoyable. Very nice people. Supervisor was kind and asked a lot of questions about me as a person rather than the basic ABC interview questions. Felt like they really got to know me for the better.

Interview
Easy, they sat you down asked you questions on past sales experience, photography and made you sell a pen. They hired me right on the spot because they were desperate for employees at the time. I don't think she listened to me talking she seemed happy someone applied for the job.
