Behavioral Technical Presentation

I had a quick 10-minute phone interview first. Then, I had a really good 45-minute interview with the store manager. After that, I interviewed with the store manager's manager. He seemed unprepared and didn't have my resume, so I gave it to him. His boss was also on the phone listening in during the interview. I felt like it went well. The next day, they called to say I didn't get the job because they felt I lacked retail experience. Given how much they stressed team building and customer service, I thought it was a bit short-sighted to reject me solely on that.

Behavioral Technical

It's basically a one-on-one with the district manager. You'll have a chance to ask them questions, and they'll ask you some too. They really emphasize that it's a super fast-paced environment, and you'll be running on a really, really skeleton crew schedule. Like, they want to know if you can stock a pallet in 30 minutes. They'll tell you how much work is involved, but the pay and benefits are really good. They also mentioned that there's a 2 to 3 interview process before they make a hiring decision.

The interview process was pretty straightforward with general questions. The manager wasn't super clear about the exact duties. There was a delay in hearing back because they were waiting for other applicants, specifically wanting a male candidate, and had to settle due to a lack of other options. It took two weeks to get a final decision on the position.

  • Would you be able to discipline colleagues if necessary?
