First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Hudson's Furniture.
Sales Associate
Had a couple interviews within the first week or so, then about 3 weeks later spoke with the HR Manager. After that I got a welcome letter and my start date for a 2 week training. Before the training, I completed a drug test and a background test. I thought I was hired, but I guess not. During the first week of the 2 week training, I took a test on the 4th day and another on the 5th day. Near the end of the second test, I was told I didn't pass the first test and that it wouldn't work out. I felt like I was discriminated against because the instructor seemed to have it out for me from the beginning, possibly because I got lost on the highway and was late on the first day, which was unfortunate but no reason for them to dislike me.
- What are your thoughts on completing a 2-week training period, after which you'll be assigned a mentor?
Sales Associate
It was an easy and long interview process, with very standard questions. I had 4 interviews. The first was a bit uncomfortable because the form they had me fill out asked for a lot of personal information about me and my family, making me think they'd use it to solicit my family for business. I didn't answer those questions, and while surprised, my interviewer moved on. The rest of the interviews were relatively easy.
- What's the most crucial element in closing a sale?
Sales Associate
The interview process was very relaxed, feeling more like a conversation. They made me feel comfortable and even complimented my smile. I shared a brief history of my work experience. The interview was conducted by two management individuals, and we sat at a dining room table.
