Interview
So I applied online on Wednesday and got a phone call 3 hours later. Thought I was in pretty good shape considering how fast it was. He said there was a group interview on Monday and I told him I could be there.
I get to the interview after hours of practicing and everyone met at the front until the guy came out and took us to the break room. We took a name tag and wrote our name and our favorite cartoon character. I drew spongebob. Then we had to describe our character and have the group members guess who they were. A lot of people had spongebob others had hello kitty and one had a ninja.
I was part of a group of 9 people. He then asked us to go out to the store and bring back a toy of our choice I brought Olaf the snowman. Then we had to pass that product to the person to the right of us and go around and sell that product to the person who gave it to us. I did this perfectly well. I even was asked to give my own sales pitch on the Olaf snowman because I was so excited about it. Then we went and put those products back where we found them and came back to a table full of Legos and blocks. We had to build a toy, name it, give it an age group, and other demographics. And had to sell it to them. It wasn't very hard at all. Then he calls up 6 out of the 9 people and hires everyone on the spot. I was part of the 3 that were asked to stay. He took us in for a 1-1 interview and this is where it got bad. They asked me difficult questions considering I've never had a job or exported r before. And the last who was in there was pregnant and kept correcting everything I was saying. I'm pretty sure I failed.
The Process Probably Take About A Week Or Two. The Called Me For A Group Interview. She Didn't Really Ask Any Questions. She Told Us About The Store. She Also Made Us Pick A Toy Off The Table And Tell Her About As If We Were Trying To Sell It To A Customer.Told Us The About The Stores And How Everything Works. Take Us On A Tour Of The Store. It Went Very Well She Asked For Our Social Security Number And Date Of Birth So She Can Run A Background Check. They Called Me Two Days Later & Told Me I Had The Job.
The interview was cute. You did a group interview and you were asked to build something an do a sales pitch. It's not hard at all but just don't be shy!
