I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Michaels in June 2010
Interview
I filled out an online application, got a call a few days later and was interviewed by Store Manage. He was very nice, seemed to want me as a sales associate, and a few days later I was asked to come in to process the paperwork. I was told at that time the pay was $8.00 per hour. I didn't find out about the part time information until I asked about it.
Being they couldn't confirm I would actually get 20 hours, it just wasn't feasible for me to take the job for less than 30 hours. Wish they had made it clear in the beginning. Also they have a point system if you clock in earlier tor later han your scheduled time, if you take a sick day or week, they take a point for that so, if you accrue 6 points in a specific timeframe, they fire you.....Seems strange to me, but maybe it keeps employees on their toes?
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
there weren't any. It was a very average interview
describe a challenging moment in your career and how you reacted to it. I said one time i had a conflict with someone and then we were able to resolve it.
I applied online. I interviewed at Michaels (Toronto, ON) in Oct 2025
Interview
Done over the phone, just a simple phone screening talking with the Store Manager. It was fairly short, only around 15-20 minutes. The manager asked about experience on my resume, as well as my availability.
I applied in-person. I interviewed at Michaels (Sequim, WA) in Oct 2025
Interview
Easy. I walked in the store to ask if they had any job openings, and the manager interviewed me on the spot, and offered me a job. I submitted an application afterwards.
