The hiring manager and HR came into the room where I was with other interviewees. We all played with Lego and then had to explain why our build was the best and why we'd be the best fit for the role.

Behavioral

It was pretty easy, but also kind of complex because you need to have qualities like being a key holder, training to become an assistant manager, then a store manager, and then an area manager. The pay is great. I'm the regional manager now, so you can really climb the ladder.

  • Are you available to work on weekends and holidays?

I met with the manager, and it was pretty straightforward. They asked about my previous experience and what toys I grew up with. It felt quite informal, and they mentioned they'd follow up within a week.
