The interview took place at the store where I applied. It was a friendly chat with friendly staff. The manager interviewed me, and another staff member wrote down notes. They asked standard STAR method questions.

It was a pretty standard interview process. You'll definitely need to know about customer service, and having supervisor experience is a big plus. The interview itself is quite short, lasting only about 20 to 30 minutes. They'll give you a tour of the store and introduce you to some of the team. This usually happens after the interview, but it really depends on who is conducting it.

I spent an hour on the phone with a very talkative person, only to be rejected for the job despite my extensive experience. They asked me a wide range of questions, covering my hobbies and my motivations for wanting the position, as well as my suitability for it. I felt I gave thorough answers, but ultimately wasn't even offered the role.
