The hiring process was pretty quick, involving simple behavioral questions. I was hired and started the next day. I worked there for a year. They weren't the best with raises, but it was an easy job. I'd suggest doing something other than receiving if you need a strict schedule, as the hours weren't consistent.

It was a pretty basic interview, asking standard questions that you asked at a job and also asked if I had any print experience, and even though I didn’t have any. It was something to learn along the way. It wasn’t pressured at all in very easy-going.
