I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Kohl's (College Station, TX) in Jan 2009
Interview
I applied for a position at a Kohl's store that was opening up in a month. My interview was held at a local hotel conference room. You fill out some paper work and wait to be called in for your interview. We got interviewed in groups of 5. They asked simple questions about scenarios (Have you ever had to work with someone you didn't get along with? How did you handle that? How would you help a customer who needs ....? What are your strengths and weaknesses?) It was a pretty easy interview. Everyone was very nice and made you feel comfortable. After the interview we wait in another room and they call certain people back. Those people are offered a job. Others are sent home...I'm guessing with a "We will be in touch with you". I enjoyed working at Kohl's...my only complaint is they would over schedule me (I was a student and the store was hectic during the first few months of opening). Other than that I enjoyed my job there!
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Have you ever had to work with someone you did not get along with? How did you handle the situation?
Pretty good, for seasonal. They asked basic questions. But also be sure to have questions of your own. Do research of the company before hand is always a good rule of thumb.
I had a Phone interview and was hired on the spot. Super relaxed interview process. No drug testing, but i think that’s normal for retail not to drug test. Started almost a week later.
I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Kohl's in Dec 2024
Interview
A video call interview through zoom that lasts roughly 15 minutes, and then a decision within 3 to 4 business days. This was for a seasonal position for the Christmas rush, so the process might be difficult for a long term position.
