It was a pretty straightforward interview. They asked some basic questions about myself and my experience with cash. Customer service and problem-solving scenarios were also discussed. Since I was a part-time worker, they inquired about my availability. The manager seemed nice.

They ask about your customer service skills and work ethic, like being organized and efficient. They want to see if you can stock shelves quickly and handle multitasking between the register and stocking the shelves. If you have relevant experience or a referral and haven't been fired from a previous job, your chances are pretty good.

I applied online for a job at Dollarama and got a call back a few days later. The recruiter liked my resume and experience and asked about my availability to start. I said I could start anytime. She then asked me to come in the next day to complete paperwork and bring ID and a void cheque. However, when I arrived, I met with a different person who was not impressed with my resume and didn't ask any job-related questions. He mentioned having many interviews and that he'd be in touch by the end of the week.
