Candidate-reported interview process
The interview process spanned two weeks with three distinct interviews. After more than a month of interviews, and me being flexible to reschedule for their needs, I didn't hear back about their decision.
First they called me to schedule an appointment and then it was online. Really very quick and they ask you the basics from all companies. Very focused on questions about the position and my work experience.
It started with a recruiter call, then I had an interview with the Store Manager, then I moved on to the DM and had an interview with her. She sent me a document to fill out which was super easy. Adjectives to describe myself outside of work and at work. Reconnected after..asked any questions I had about the role, benefits, how things work/expectations.Everyone involved was great, understanding, and knowledgeable. I did get the offer… haven’t decided yet.
