Behavioral Technical Presentation
The manager called me the day after getting my CV for an interview, I was hesitant about the next day notice but we sorted it out. I was told to look up the company online and bring a printed CV. When I got there, an assistant sat in on the interview as they were being trained. The manager seemed to think I was fresh out of school and hadn't read my CV, saying I had no 'REAL retail' experience when I did. Instead of asking about my work history, she asked about school and home life. She insisted we shouldn't bring drama to work. Then there was a written test where I had to describe and package earrings. I was told if I didn't hear back by Friday morning, I didn't get the job. It was a very uncomfortable experience.

Presentation Behavioral
The interview was online and the interviewer was very nice. They asked me to bring a piece of jewellery and basically "sell" it to them, making sure to use my hands smoothly. Warren James likes to treat customer assistance as a show, so you're meant to be acting and describing the jewellery passionately. I wouldn't really advise working here though. I was sent to another city to cover shifts despite having little experience and only being a temp. I was also accused of lying in my interview because I wasn’t working every hour of everyday that I didn’t have college, even though I was on a 16-hour contract. Apparently, they have a rule where you must work overtime. Across 5 days I worked over 50 hours, and I was only 17. So yeah, I wouldn’t recommend it.
