I applied online. I interviewed at Staples in Feb 2021
Interview
Bad! I mean really bad, I had just 1 hour final interview divided in 2 halves. The first interviewer was 15 minutes late and did not care about anything. The second interviewer was better but seemed to be really egoistic. Got no remarks or feedbacks from the recruiter just a cold auto-reject mail after begging for results.
