I came to open interviews and talked about myself and why I liked the store. They examined my resume and asked about my work ethic. Mainly about attendance in addition to, how committed I was to being available to pick up shifts . After learning more about me they sent me a email to accept employment.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at World Market (Saint Louis, MO) in Apr 2014
Interview
Applied online, got a phone call the next day to schedule an interview (group interview, which turned out to be me and one other girl). Two of the managers asked basic questions. Had us go through the store and pick out one item and try to "sell it" to them. Then told us that they would e-mail us to schedule a one-on-one with the general manager. Came back for the one-on-one and mostly asked questions about time, schedule, what I would do once school started again. And then at the end she said she would e-mail me the job offer that evening. Boom.
I applied online. I interviewed at World Market (Tucson, AZ) in Oct 2013
Interview
I received an email stating the job offer and the phone number I needed to call to set up an interview if I chose to accept their offer. I called and a group interview was arranged. Pretty simple questions were asked of all of us like whether or not we had any prior experience in retail or customer service, what our availability was like, why we wanted to work there, and whether or not we were part of 'explorer' the stores' rewards program. A few days after the interview I received a call stating I had gotten the job and arranged for me to come in for training before my first shift.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The most difficult question would probably be whether or not we were an explorer member.
