      Stock Associate Interview

      13 Jul 2015
      Anonymous employee
      New York, NY
      Accepted offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at JCPenney (New York, NY) in Aug 2013

      Interview

      It was a group interview. Be sure to dress nicely and come prepared, meaning ready to talk, with nerves relaxed and a little bit of background information on the company. We were asked various questions, I took m time an was often the last to answer, as I wanted to gather as many responses as possible at first and use them to build my own response which would exceed that of everyone in the room. Once the group questioning process was over they separated about 60 percent of the people in the room, asking them to come out to the hallway then directed them to the exit, so be glad if you're still in the interview room. The job offer comes within minutes after that, along with any terms and such that you need to know about the job, as well as your training dates.

      Question 1

      If you walked into an elevator with (insert famous CEO here) and had only a minute to convince him/her to give you a position with their company, how would you go about this?
