      Assistant Manager Interview

      Oct 18, 2014
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Declined offer
      Negative experience

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Forever 21

      Interview

      Upon completing and online app, I got a call within two weeks from the store manager. She set up an interview with me in her mall. The interview in general went well and she was very pleasant but she did not have questions ready and was very unprofessional in the way she conducted it. For example, she asked how I would 'discipline' an underperformer. I told her the steps I would take but she cut me off and told me her first response would be to cut someone's hours, not mentioning anything about additional training. Our conversations went well but she asked mostly 'tell me a time' questions and constantly looked at her interview guide for help. My next interview was with the district manager. The store manager did not tell me this interview was supposed to be over the phone so I drove 45 minutes to the store. Inside the store, the Co-Manager was the only manager on and was one of three people on cash register, which should never happen. This was on a Thursday. I waited for her to break away and come speak to me, and while she was nice as well she was completely oblivious to who I was or what I was doing there. She called the store manager at home and told me my interview would be over the phone and I should be expecting a call. I suspect that they forgot about my interview because the DM called me 15 minutes late from her headset as she was driving. The DM was also very nice and asked me much more detailed questions and my interview was more like a conversation with her which I appreciated. She said her next step would be to discuss with the SM and she would email me, which she did later that night. After discussion about pay, she indicated I would be made an offer. A week went by and I didn't hear anything so I emailed her again to follow up. She told me the SM reached out to me but I didn't answer (I had no missed calls or voicemails). She then told me someone else would reach out to me with an offer. Another week went by and still no one. I found another job.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Forever 21 (Toronto, ON) in May 2025

      Interview

      The interview was a one on one styled dialogue and very personality and motivations based. (Not very technical ) The questions were holistic but straightforward in nature. It lasted anywhere from 30-40 minutes.

      I interviewed at Forever 21 (Livermore, CA)

      Interview

      Good. Everthing went good. Process was just fine. It was 30 minutes long I want to say and they ask questions you probably hear at every other interview so nothing caught me by surprise.
