The whole process took about two weeks. I interviewed virtually with the store manager first, and then with the district manager. It was a pretty smooth interview process, and I felt good about it afterwards.

The process is pretty straightforward. It involves 3 interviews: first, a chat with HR to go over the job objectives and confirm salary expectations. Then, you'll meet with your future manager, followed by a meeting with upper management.

Behavioral
It was lovely, the interviewer stuck with the questions and genuinely interested getting to know me. However it stopped there, I left feeling positive however they must’ve found another candidate. I wish the communication would be better as I was told to wait for two weeks to follow up. After two weeks complete silence. It’s just frustrating!
