Had a one-hour interview which was pretty standard with the store manager. They asked questions about my CV and were particularly interested in the sports I play because the salespeople are expected to advise on the sports they practice. Also asked about the brands and the Decathlon universe, equipment, and sports...

Behavioral
The interview, in my opinion, went very well, they seemed happy. At the last question they asked me if I was engaged? Do you want to start a family? I naively answered yes, besides changing my mind and becoming an expert, and they told me great the interview is over, you can go... obviously they never called me back.
Confirmed questions4 questions
