The interview process

Described in candidates’ own words.

Few questions, like 3 or 4 total. Not hard to get the interview but they are very specific in what they want and details matter a lot. Not fun if you forget to include something in a part.Candidate-reported process
Two rounds with scenario based questions like what would you do in a stressful situation. How do you make a perfect customer experience. How do you deescalate a situation where two customers are arguing.Candidate-reported process
The application process took around two months. It started with an initial interview, then there was an introduction to the company. The last step was a group interview that took place in the store.Candidate-reported process
