I applied in-person. I interviewed at Dillard's (Augusta, GA) in Mar 2009
Interview
Its been approx. 11 years since I applied, interviewed, & was hired, so many things have changed in that time frame. 1st, most applications are taken from either the store kiosks or from the company's web site. So, I initially applied using a paper application and dropped it off at the store. Then, I was called by a manager for an interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
There weren't many difficult questions only somewhat about salary rates.
Standard interview, quite short (20 minutes) for the first round. Asked about past experience, sales skills, expected pay, and my future goals at the company. Interviewers were very nice and welcoming, made the experience much less intimidating!
Not sure what to expect. When I spoke to the manager it felt very condescending and off putting. The interview was fine but they exaggerated the amount of commission associates can make and didn’t even give me a chance to agree to a job offer just assumed that I would take it. I don’t have very high hopes about how it will be working there. When I came in for my interview one associate didn’t even greet me like she did the last customer and the energy of the atmosphere just felt super dull and soulless. I need this job on my resume as a fashion business student for internships so I’ll push through but not at all optimistic about the work environment.
Easy, few job related questions. schedual flexability. Shifts avilabiltys, days and holidays avilabilitys. Your job rolle, expectation, traning, education, refrences. Work history and reson for chosing the store. It is a simple easy procces,more like meet and greet.
