The process took a while, and unfortunately, I didn't get the job. The manager was polite and seemed to know what they were looking for. It took about 3 weeks to hear back from the manager that I didn't get the job.

The interview went pretty well, I spoke with a manager in the store. They mostly asked me behavioral questions and I filled out some information. I probably wasn't chosen because I'm a student who was home for the summer.

The interview process was pretty standard. The questions they asked felt relevant and straightforward, not tricky. The whole thing felt a bit vague, but it didn't seem like they were trying to hide anything. Some of the questions were a little odd, like asking if I shopped at Whole Foods and why I didn't.
