      Furniture Specialist - Key Holder Interview

      24 Mar 2010
      Anonymous employee
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      The process took 5 days. I interviewed at OfficeMax in Feb 2010

      Interview

      Applied on line at the Company Website. I filled out the application & took the personality test, if you don't take the personality test you won't be called for an interview. I uploaded my resume. If I am not mistaken they use scanning software to review resume's. You have to read job discription carefully and use all the key words to get through the scan. I applied for the same position @ 2 locations. I scored 95% for the location closest to my home and I scored 0% for the location 25 miles away. I think I scored 0% b/c my address was too far away for a key holder position. That is how I figured out they must use scanning software. I interviewed with the Store Manager and I was asked standard retail questions. The Manager was very professional and polite and explained what the job entailed. I was re-scheduled for a phone interview with the DM. I was called back to sign papers for a drug test & background check.
