Interview
Process took 2 weeks. I applied online and got a call the next day from the store asking if I could come in for an interview the following week. The store was packed the day of the interview so the interviewer was 10-15 minutes late, it was a group interview but with just one other person. It was mad chill, we got interviewed by a sales floor leader b/c the original interviewer called out sick. He asked us generic questions and the whole thing took about 10-15 minutes. He told us they'd contact us back within a week to set up another interview with the manager if they liked us.
Group interview with atleast 10 others. Maybe about 30 minutes. Best to tell stories of customer experience for answers to better highlight self. It was about 10 questions long with two store managers.
