Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Red Wing Shoe.
Sales Associate
It was more involved than I'm used to from past retail jobs. I had an initial phone screening, then a phone interview, and finally an in-person interview with a manager.
- If a customer were to say something insulting, how would you handle it and what would you say?
Sales Associate
The interview process was quite relaxed, with hiring decisions focusing on personality and potential. The hiring team was approachable and easy to communicate with. Business casual attire is recommended.
- Can you tell me about your previous work experience?
Sales Associate
I applied on Snagajob.com and the manager called me within a week. I went in and filled out a form with my basic info, education, and work experience. Then he asked me some questions about my schedule, how much I like working with people (on a scale of 1-10), and how much I like feet (on a scale of 1-10). He also asked why I want to work at Red Wings Shoes and what I know about shoes. He then asked about felony convictions. After that, I had to do some skills tasks. He explained stocking and marking, then I had to find five shoes in the stockroom, one hidden, one missing, one mislabeled, and the rest in place. Then I had to stock two boxes of shoes myself, one with the aisle marked, and one where I had to check style numbers. He asked how confident I was that I presented myself well. A customer came in, so I shadowed him while he checked them out. Finally, he asked what I could tell him that I hadn't already mentioned that would make him hire me.
- What can you tell me right now that you have not mentioned in your resume or earlier in this interview that would make me hire you?
