      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Goodwill (Pueblo, CO) in Jun 2019

      Interview

      Prior to coming into the interview, I wasn't given any specific name for who would interview me. Coming in on the day, the manager(s) were busy, I suppose, so I asked about my interview with a front associate, and they called them over loudspeaker. I was then directed to chill out, or something, stand still, just whatever, faff about at the jewelry section. This lasted about 15 to 20 minutes, where I was called into a room by a lady named Kara, who was apparently partnered with another lady named Ellen (a joint interview I certainly was never informed in the slightest of!), who, both in keeping with amiable appearances, told me to think my responses to the questions through thoroughly, and take as much time as I needed to answer, while letting me sip on a free bottle of water they provided. The questions asked in this process were incredibly obtuse and allowed to be broad to the point that if you had no prior job experience, you could draw an answer from any time in your life you remembered. Needless to say, despite my optimism and willingness to do things, I must've been perceived as a boring individual, to which I'd say, their process wasn't quite so humanly written itself. After all, their interview sheets did resemble something you'd see during high school, with one printed paragraph per question, which they had to think of things to scrawl underneath (presumably based off whatever I said). Do they like to review applicants, I wonder? They sort of seemed like school students waiting for the bell to get out of class, plucked by a teacher, and stuck into a partner project where everybody had a different interpretation of the answers to the questions provided. By the way, those questions are absolutely super-negative! You better walk in there thinking of every possible lowest moment of your life where somebody has wronged you in some way, or you had to pick up after another person's mistakes, because that's the bulk of those questions.
