I applied in-person. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Bed Bath & Beyond (New York, NY) in Jan 2010
Interview
It wasn't a hard process. I went in, filled out an application, and the next day I got a phone call. I scheduled an appointment for an interview for the followiing week. During the interview I was asked about my previous employment and then I had to take a personality test which took like an hour to complete. Everything was going great and I was told by several people that this means you are basically hired. I waited a few days for a phone call that never came. I don't know what could have gone wrong.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe an experience at your previous job in which you dealt with an angry customer.
was quick short and simple. Asked how to deal difficult customers and how I delt with the these customers. Basic customer service experience as well. Overall was one of the easiest job interviews.
It was pretty straightforward. They asked about why I wanted to work there and what experience I had. Then they asked about my available hours and things like that. It wasn’t too difficult or anything like that.
