The interview was pretty good. We chatted about customer service skills, potential challenges you might encounter as a barista, and your previous experience in that role. The interviewer also shared some of her experience working at Nordstrom.

After applying online for the national hiring day, I got a fast reply. It told me when to come in for an open interview and even said to bring friends and family to interview too. I went to apply in person, but a worker told me the jobs were already filled. They only hired 3 out of the 20 people who showed up. She also mentioned that the recruiters and job ads had given the wrong times to come and apply.
