It was pretty straightforward, they asked me some basic things like why I wanted to join the company, my future aspirations, and how I'd handle a situation where I couldn't immediately help someone. The manager was really nice and understanding.

The interview process was really quick, and they asked me questions that seemed suitable for someone applying for their first job. They asked me to describe myself and how I'd handle different scenarios. I was also asked if I could lift a certain amount of weight and to tell them a bit about myself. Overall, it wasn't too difficult, and I heard back from them within a week.

I had a one-on-one interview and they asked typical questions like about my work history, the customer service I provided, and what I would do in certain situations. Right from the beginning, they told me the only available job was for a Harmon associate working in the store. They hired me right at the end of the interview.
