Interview
Called a week after applying to set up a phone interview the next day. The phone interview was very intense. There are a lot of question, more than the actually interview and we talked for more than 20 Mins. After the phone interview I was contacted 5 Mins later to set up a person interview locally. Interview went very well. The interview was very distracted by watching the store and it was very crowed in the restaurant that day. He asked similar questions to the phone interview. I was called 4 days later to offer me a lead counter job! Thank you but no. I have good experience. Very disappointed and somewhat insulted by the offer. Person I talked said I could work my way up within a year.

Interview
Lengthy conversation with Training Manager and Area Manager. May be invited to working interview with trainer to show off skills. Job offer after if you are acceptable. Area Manager looked like they needed sleep and was very unenthusiastic. The training manager seemed upbeat and eager to interview. Debra Lee is a joke. You will be bombarded with questions, it doesn't matter how you answer, Debra decided when you sat down.

Question 1
What are your 3 main values? How do you achieve these in your daily life? Standard questions and then weirdly invasive ones.

Interview
There are three interviews: 1. Hiring HR; 2. Area Manager; 3. Onsite preview They are very efficient, the whole process only took 7-10 days, and they expect you to make the decision soon.

Interview
Good interview process so far. Couple of interview then they do a hands on w lariat ion in store. After that they do final interview with Regional operations manager. It seems like a lot but they seem to want only top talent.
