I applied in-person. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Pottery Barn (Ann Arbor, MI)
Interview
Simple questions aimed at assessing who you are, work experience, goals, and that you will be a good match for the team and the company. Management is friendly and easy to talk to during the interview process. The general manager does a good job assigning roles where employees express they feel most comfortable.

Competitive sales environment,
I interviewed at Pottery Barn (King of Prussia, PA)
Interview
I actually approached a worker in the store to ask if they were hiring. She quickly introduced me to her store manager and because she did have time available we sat down on one of the sofas. She explained the role and I assured me experience in sales as well as design. This was in November, starting as seasonal help but transitioned into full time with benefits over time.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is your history of sales and or retail? Can you handle high stress environments?
The best way to describe the phone interview is short and sweet. It lasted about 10 minutes, and the recruiter whom spoke with me was quite lovely. She followed up with the interview in 2 days as said, and has so far been a delight to coordinate with throughout this process.
