The interview was very informal, conducted while standing around in the store. It seemed the main evaluation tool was a trick question. I was told the interview went great and I would definitely get a call at the end of the week. I never did.

There were three rounds of interviews, and I spoke with three different managers. Each interview was a one-on-one meeting with each level of management that is present in the store. They asked very standard questions, all of which were from a company interviewing process booklet.
