Called to speak with manager to see if they were hiring. Same day, I applied in store and was invited to comeback to interview the next day.
Questions:
1.) Tell me about yourself & prior experiences
2.) Why did you leave your last position
3.) Are you currently working
4.) Are you in school
5.) Why Forever 21
6.) What can you bring to the company
The pro’s of my application:
1.) Availability (mentioned over the phone an importance)
2.) Prior retail experience
3.) The energy I had when I applied in person
Tips:
1.) Apply online and in store
2.) On a non-busy day call and speak with a manager. Ask about the position you’re applying to and is it okay for you to come in to fill out an application
3.) Apply in person. Dress accordingly and appropriately. I wore all black and a denim jacket on the day of inquire and grey T-shirt and jeans for interview
4.) Research the company
5.) Plan your commute
6.) Bring a resume, and I.D/Birth certificate/socials to interview in case you’re hired on spot
7.) Be nice, be attentive, and on time
there was only one interview. I was asked about my availability and my desire to work at Forever 21 and retail in general. I was offered the position by the end
Interview was for a new store that was opening. Pretty easy and basic questions. I think most of the people that were there probably got hired after that day. Prep answers for questions about your experience, temperament, past collaboration, etc.
Easy. Group interview. We went around answering questions. Everyone had equal time to speak and was made to feel very comfortable. Nice setting and would definitely recommend working there. Fun
