I had a quick interview over FaceTime and got a job offer the same day. The interview had simple questions, making it an easy process with a quick turnaround on the contract and start date.

Behavioral Technical Presentation

The interviewer was really nice and friendly. They asked some typical interview questions, but also threw in a couple of tougher ones about leadership and customer service experiences I've had. After that, we did a hands-on trial on the shop floor.

Behavioral Technical

You'll have a manager or assistant manager ask you a bunch of questions off a checklist, it's usually about 20 mins. It's a pretty standard retail interview. You'll typically do a phone interview first to go over your availability and stuff like that, and then they'll invite you in for the in-person interview.

Confirmed questions7 questions
  • Tell me about how you'd deal with upset customers.
  • What would you do if you saw a customer shoplifting?
  • How would you respond to a fire emergency situation?
