It was super simple, just two of us got interviewed. It was a single step, and we only talked to the regional hiring manager. We also had a quick phone interview before that.

The interview process was smooth and comfortable. There were general customer service questions, and it felt like the hiring manager genuinely wanted to know more about my approach to work rather than just rushing through the process as I’ve experienced elsewhere. It helps to have retail experience.

I walked in and they took me to the back room. The interview was super long and they threw a bunch of random questions at me. It was tough, I wouldn't really suggest it. But the interviewer was nice.

It was a pretty standard interview process. Since I'm still in high school, the questions were mainly about my school achievements and what I do outside of class. They asked about my strengths, weaknesses, and how I'd deal with customer disagreements. They also asked me some situational questions about how I'd respond in certain scenarios.

- Could you explain your motivation for wanting to join this specific company?
