      Sales Associate Interview

      21 Jul 2012
      Anonymous employee
      Norcross, GA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at PetSmart (Norcross, GA) in Oct 2011

      Interview

      For any position you are applying for, they give you a quick run down of how the job works. Then, they ask questions on how you would deal with customer situations and if you have any prior knowledge that would be useful (to avoid time for training). ---OPTIONAL: After the hiring manager reviews your credentials, she sends out for second interviews with the head manager.---- Next, the qualifying candidates will return to negotiate pay rate, get legal paperwork, and paper for drug screening. If the drug screen comes back negative, a manager will call you back in to receive your uniform shirts (Pants, shoes, and belts must be purchased by the employee). The team/lead manager over the department you are applying for will be there during the post interview. It is to get a feel for who they will be training.
