      Average interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Powell's Books (Portland, OR)

      Interview

      10 person group interview. 10 applicants and one employee asks a question, and then everyone goes around and answers. Mostly related to your sales experience. Some people talk forever and it gets easy to lose focus of what your answer will be.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      What did you do when a customer was unhappy with their service and wanted a refund/comp?
