      Store General Manager Interview

      4 Apr 2022
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Chelmsford, England
      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Cycles UK (Chelmsford, England) in Mar 2022

      Interview

      PROS: -- If you like bikes then you can get good discounts on bike related merchandise -- Employees are friendly and sociable. CONS: -- The owner baits and switches in the interview process e.g. salary is 30k but then in the interview he will say that none of his Store Managers earn 30k and I should expect 20-23k. -- The owner wanted to increase my hours from Mon-Fri to Mon- Sun for less reumeration in the interview. -- The owner tried to change the job I was interviewing for in the interview for less renumeration which I felt was deceptive and unprofessional. -- The owner appeared to be reluctant to invest in the retail premises: he was advised on improvements on: merchandising, replenishment, store lighting, shop floor cleanliness but he was reluctant to enact change. -- In the interview I felt he spoke poorly about his staff. -- In my opinion, this was the most uncomfortable + unproessional interview I had experienced in my decade of interview experience.
