First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Ross Stores.
Administrative Assistant
So, I applied for this job and within 20 minutes of scheduling, they emailed saying the role was closed. I called recruitment, and they said it was a mistake. I didn't want to waste my time on an interview that wasn't going to lead anywhere. When I got there, 15 minutes early, they made me fill out a full application even though I had a resume, and required three references upfront. The interview itself was in a tiny office where my knees hit the desk and I couldn't move back. Two recruiters interviewed me.
- Can you share an instance where you made an error and describe how you dealt with it?
Executive Assistant
I had a really bad time interviewing with this person. They were not nice at all and it felt super tense, almost rude. They didn't even say hello when I arrived. They seemed too young and inexperienced for this kind of interview. It left a terrible impression, and I made sure the recruiter knew not to send anyone there again. The interview was at their corporate office in NY on Broadway.
- What is something you did wrong in your last role?
Administrative Assistant
It was a pretty smooth and easy interview process overall. There were two rounds of interviews that took place over the span of about a week. The questions they asked really focused on my past experience. I met with two different people who work there, and they were both really attentive and kind. Unfortunately, I didn't end up getting the offer.
- Can you tell me about your most recent work experience?
