      Cashier Interview

      Apr 11, 2012
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Phoenix, AZ
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Sears (Phoenix, AZ) in Apr 2012

      Interview

      I applied online and was immediately prompted to schedule an interview time. I show up 15 minutes early for the interview in dress clothes, and I am finally greeted by the lead cashier in the store who tells me that she will be conducting my interview. After describing the job qualifications, she proceeded to ask me inane and pointless questions like, "Tell me about a time where you gave great customer service." I had already formulated desirable answers to her questions and replied to them in a quick manner, and she seemed pleased. She then told me that she would give my application to the store manager who would examine it and, if i was hired, i would receive a phone call the following saturday (my interview was on tuesday). Saturday finally comes and I receive no call or even an email saying that I didn't get the job, so I decide to call the store and get an official answer. I called the HR department 4 times and no one managed to answer the phone. After being on hold for 20 minutes, 2 different people took my name and number down and told me that they would call me back with an answer. Monday arrives without any word from Sears, so I decide to go in the store and talk to someone face to face. Apparently the store manager did not look over my application, and the woman that interviewed me simply went with another candidate. Honestly, I am happy that I was not offered a position, because everyone in that store seemed absolutely worthless to me. No customer service, stupid interview process, and hypocritical management all make it an awful place to work. This should be a last resort for employment, because there are much better jobs out there that will not fail to recognize your true value rather than hiring 3-4 mentally deficient people who simply stand around on their phones all day. I will never set foot in a Sears again.

      I interviewed at Sears

      Interview

      The interview process can vary depending on the company and position, but here’s a general idea of what to expect: 1. Application Review: After applying, they’ll review your resume. If they’re interested, you’ll get a call or email to set up an interview. 2. Phone/Video Interview: A lot of places do an initial screening over the phone or via video call. They’ll ask about your background, why you're interested in the job, and how your skills fit the role. It’s usually a casual chat, but make sure to prepare by knowing the company and job description. 3. In-Person Interview: If you pass the initial screening
