I applied online. I interviewed at Victoria's Secret (Tempe, AZ)
Interview
My first interview went well. It was supposed to be a group interview with me and another girl, but the other girl didn't show up which made it easier on me because I didn't feel like I had to show anyone up... The assistant manager was friendly and made sure I felt comfortable. She would also praise me if she liked a certain answer I had to one of her questions which was really reassuring. She also followed a packet that had behavioral questions in it that pertain to your last job and at the end she set up a 2nd interview with the general manager.....the 2nd interview didnt go as smoothly as I wanted. It was a group interveiw with 2 other girls and i stuttered on one of the questions and didnt have as elaborate answers as the other girls...unfortunately, I suck at group interviews therefore I didnt get the job.
Interview questions [4]
Question 1
What was a time you had to do two different tasks at your last job and how did you handle it?
Hiring managers prioritize your personality, availability, and customer service mindset, looking for candidates who are friendly, adaptable, reliable, and comfortable engaging with customers, rather than focusing heavily on prior experience or technical skills.
Very easy, first a phone call then meeting in person. Took a while to be seen in person even after the scheduled meeting time, they had me just kind of stand in a corner for a while waiting for someone to become available.
