I applied online. I interviewed at The Container Store (Oakbrook Terrace, IL)
Interview
I was contacted very quickly for an invite to a group interview. There were 6 of us, all good candidates I thought. The interview was very professional, conducted by the General Manager and a store manager. They asked you to watch different segments of a company video, then wanted each candidates input. The only thing that could have been handled better was the GM was very focused on the gal sitting next to me. It was quite obvious he was zeroing in on her - which, I can't fault him, she was cute, young and had good answers. Just wish he wasn't so obvious. Be prepared to work all shifts and all jobs and LOVE doing it. Also you will be working in other stores in the area.

Question 1
Instead of asking "tell me about yourself", they asked "what brought you to the Container Store?" The rest of the questions were pretty general.
I interviewed at The Container Store (Phoenix, AZ)
Interview
Disappointed that after what seemed like promising interviews, one over the phone and one in person, I am not given the courtesy of any feedback. Multiple follow up emails and texts later, still nothing. At least have the decency to say I did not get the job instead of just leaving me hanging.
