I applied through university. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Men's Wearhouse (Montclair, CA) in Sept 2012
Interview
I interned there through a program at my school and then interviewed briefly for the job. Make sure to look the part- they definitely want someone who will represent their brand professionally and be suitable to sell suits. We interviewed at the store in the back / break room so nothing fancy. They will most likely ask you to come during a time where there is low-traffic at the store so they are not obligated to attend to customers.
I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Men's Wearhouse (Novato, CA)
Interview
Series of interviews starting with the one manager talking about your relevant experience in customer service/sales and an idea of daily tasks that you will preform. Could talk about availability and amount of hours to work. High school students are considered for approved part time work. Be ready to show up dressed in the appropriate business wear and in a positive can do attitude. Generally followed up with another interview with other manager members of the team and a request to do a product presentation on the spot, showcasing your communication and ability to describe and sell a suit with accessories. Just be yourself and do your best to sell the items on the table. You should be equipped with the customer profile and occasion of the outfit, if not, be sure to ask. This is usually followed up with a decision to employ you and offer for your wages.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Do you have experience in sales or customer service? Are you comfortable standing for long periods of time? Why do you want to work here? Are you a team player and goal oriented?
in person where was asked what sales experience i have. asked about my people skills and my schedule. was a fare and relaxed interview. would reccomend the job for people who are interested in men’s formal wear and working with people.
Wasn’t too bad. I think that if they spent more time on questions that actually pertained to the job it would’ve been better. 2 interviews total. I think the process could have went a lot smoother
