I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Uniqlo (San Francisco, CA) in Sep 2013
Interview
The pre-interview process was very thorough. I received many emails from the company stating when and where my interview would take place along with the starting wage which was a great touch. Walking into the store, the associates were not very welcoming and it felt very stiff and corporate. The interview itself was a group interview with 5 other people and it felt as though we were being interrogated rather than being considered as an employee. Overall not the best experience that I've ever had in my life.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What would you do to make sure that each customer that comes into the store will walk out with a bag of clothes when they leave. How would you sell the utmost to them?
I got a phone call from the Talent Acquisition staff. Asked basic question about the company and availability. After the phone screening, I got a one on one interview with Store Manager.
Group interview taking turns answering given questions. Group number is 3 and you will talk to the manager and assistant manager. First you fill out a form giving available days and what hours you wish to work.
The interview took place in a hotel conference room with many other candidates. Asked us 2 super simple questions and to work in teams. Afterwards, some candidates got an interview with the HR department. They were asking each one of us the same question ( there are 2 more people with me). Overall, it wasn't the worst interview; they do not take their time to actually get to know you as a person and do not want to give you an opportunity to work part-time, because you might decide to leave to pursue your career in a year or two which I don't think is fair.
