It was a pretty chill interview. They mostly asked about my personality and what I'm into, and how I'd stand out from other people applying. The interviewers were relaxed and tried to make it a fun vibe to put candidates at ease.

It was a joke. They put you in a group interview where managers and HR just laugh at people. Seems they only hire people that fill their diversity quotas. They make you do four stupid activities that have no bearing on the job at all, like colouring in a drawing and writing words. Doesn't matter what you do, they already know who they hire. I'm more than qualified for this with years of experience in retail and tech, and they couldn't even give me any feedback as to why I was rejected.

We did two rounds of interviews. The first one was a group thing with like, different activities about merchandising and customer service. We got split into groups and had to do three activities. It was pretty fun. The second interview was just with the store manager.
