I applied online. I interviewed at francesca's (Woodbridge, VA) in Jul 2015
Interview
I got a call from the manager, which never gave me a name, and we scheduled an interview. I went to the mall, walked to the store and knocked on the door since the store had not been opened yet and when someone opened the door I had told them I was here for an interview. I was told that the people who interviewed were out at the bank to get money and that they'd be back in like 20 minutes. I sat at a sitting area that was near the store so I could see if anyone entered the store. I waited the 20 minutes and went back to the store and knocked on the door again, I got no answer. Waited another 10 minutes, knocked, no answer again. After that, I left the mall and never heard anything back from them.
Other Sales Associate Interview Reviews for francesca's
Pretty fast, it started with a phone call and then in person interview. After the interview in-person, you are onboarded fast and watch some training videos. After that, you are on the floor and also trained on the register.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How much or if I had any experience working retail
One on one interview, asked general questions for retail. I did notice that they are interested in availability more than anything. Had a portion in the end with fake scenarios.
It was an easy process and straightforward. The questions are about what the job entails to see if you would be a good fit. The interview was with the store manager.
