Applied online, it was easy. Got a call back in 3 days and scheduled an in-person meeting at the store. The in-person interview questions were pretty simple.

The field recruiter was very impersonal, but professional from start to finish. The interview felt rushed and scripted, with answers to personal experience questions sounding like they were read from a script, perhaps due to procedure. Overall, it was an odd but not bad interview.

The interview process was fairly easy. First, you'll interview with the Store Director at the location you're applying to. Then, there's usually a phone or Zoom call with the District Manager.

It was a really chill, chatty interview. They gave me the job right then and there! The manager was super nice and gave me the best pay she could. She also mentioned helping with visual merchandising because I've done it before.
