The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Pier 1 Imports in Mar 2012
Interview
I initially applied in the store. After a few weeks I was called to arrange an interview. The interview was one on one with the store manager in the store. The interview was straightforward with most questions relating to how you would approach different situations with customers and how you would help to increase sales. The answers to questions could be both real life experiences or hypothetical if you hadn't been in such a situation being asked about. Everyone was beyond friendly during the process. The store manager was so friendly during the interview, as were all the other associates and assistant managers I encountered while coming and going.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is your least favorite part about working in retail?
I interviewed at Pier 1 Imports (Fort Collins, CO)
Interview
It was about 30 minutes long. The manager asked me basic questions about myself and the job. He wanted to know my availability and if I were able to unload the truck due to the boxes being heavy.
Simple and transparent process. After applying, was asked to come in to interview in person. Interview was professional and took around 45 minutes. Heard back from hiring manager within a week.
