The interview at dd’s Discounts felt pretty disorganized and rushed. The interviewer didn’t seem very interested, and only asked a few easy questions. They also didn’t do a good job of explaining the role, making the whole experience feel unprofessional and leaving me feeling unsure about the company culture.

It was a pretty quick process. They asked a lot about my past jobs, my future aspirations, how long I saw myself working at dd's, and if I possessed any skills that would be an asset to the store. I was also asked if I pick things up fast, and when I said yes, they followed up by asking for an example from a previous job.

I sent in my application in November for a seasonal associate position. About a week later, I was contacted for an interview with the store manager. During the interview, I was asked typical interview questions, and I used my previous experience working at an art gallery to answer them. The manager was very understanding, and I was offered the job right after the interview. I started working about a week after that.
