I applied online for a part time retail position and on the same week I got an email asking me to schedule an interview. They then gave me a confirmation email about the scheduled date and directions on where to go for the interview. On the day of, I went to the interview location 15 minutes before my scheduled time, which was at the Executive Offices, and waited until someone called me in. A very nice lady called me into a room, labeled on the door "Training Room" and told me to sit down.
Before going to the interview, I've researched on Glassdoor on how to handle interviews and read a lot of reviews saying that the supervisor/interviewer didn't bother to look at them all throughout the process. Most of the reviews I've read described the supervisor as having a sort of cold attitude. So I went into this interview expecting the worse. But as I sat down and started my interview, the lady quickly said that I shouldn't be nervous because it is MY interview. She assured me to just be myself and take my time answering questions. I was extremely relieved to know that my interviewer is nice and, honestly, a motherly type of figure. I find motherly type of employers are the best. We spoke almost casually, but I was careful to not sound too casual and sound more professional. A lot of the questions she asked me were behavioral/ethical type of questions like "Tell me a time when you were in a group, and someone in the group didn't do what they were supposed to do. What did you do about the situation?" <--Something like that. Other questions that were pretty difficult dealt with sales and how to upscale a sale to make it into a bigger sale. Or "How would you celebrate a sale?"
When I finished the interview, she said she liked my attitude, hired me on the spot and we talked about paperwork, orientation and training. I was hired as a part time retail associate in the Women's clothing department. I later found out that the lady that was interviewing me was the Women's clothing department manager and it was really awesome to know that she really liked my attitude.
