I came in and was taken to the back. There were 3 questions asked, and it felt very casual, more like a conversation. The assistant manager interviewed me instead of the main manager.

So I turned in my application and the manager decided to interview me right then and there, which was fine, but it happened on the sales floor with customers all around listening in. It was definitely the worst interview ever, I couldn't even concentrate with everything going on. To make it worse, the manager was super rude throughout the whole thing.

You submit your application online and you get an interview right away. It's held on the sales floor and it's super casual. I figured out during the interview that I didn't want that job.
