It was a pretty easy interview. For dress code, they recommended business formal attire. This included black shoes, black pants or khakis, and a black or white shirt. They asked basic questions and some scenario-based questions. A key point was emphasizing customer service and remembering that the customer is always right.

Applied online but no callback, so I went in person. They moved me up the list and called me that day for an initial interview. Then, I think I had another in-person interview with the Front End Department Manager. It was short, about 10 mins, and they offered me the job right away.
