I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Crate and Barrel (Northbrook, IL)
Interview
Phone call, then invite for interview. This was rhe WORST interview I've ever experienced. I thought the interview went very well. The person who interviewed me sId they will contact me in a week. A week passed and no contact. I called them back by the end of the week and they said they're "still interviewing people and will call back"... They never did. Never have I had more anxiety on this job than ever before. To this day, now more than a month later I still wait for them due to me never gettibg ANY closure. Do not promise you will call back with no intention. If I didn't get the job, I'd appreciate closure that I never got... Thanks for almost a month of an anxiety....

Question 1
Name a time you went above and beyond to help a customer.
Quick process and standard questions. The HR rep was very clear on the job and requirements. I did not have any unanswered questions following the interview. To clarify this was for a temp holiday position.
Easy and straightforward. It was a seasonal position. I applied a few days before the interview and I was hired on the spot. I would recommend this company, as the process was really quick and easy.
Business casual, sit down interview with store manager. Very casual and more about yourself than anything else. I was asked about the merchandise but was explained that not knowing was fine.
