Interview
phone screen with one ASM. Called back to do a live interview with a different ASM asking pretty standard questions. I received a call back with the job offer within 48 hours
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
About conflict resolution with customers. Give me an example of a situation with an angry customer and what did you do to solve said problem including the outcome.
A loosely structured melee of misc questions leading up to an overall pointless interview. A mistake was made in regards to a communicated salary by the admin looking after the pre screen phone call.
I applied online. I interviewed at RONA (Ottawa, ON) in Feb 2021
Interview
I applied for a virtual hiring event of Lowe's Home Improvement (Lowe's purchased Rona in 2016). Then I got a link to set a date for a virtual interview. At the virtual interview, a recruiter asked me a few basic questions. Following the virtual Interview, I had an in-person interview with a Manager at Rona (Nepean store). The manager was very positive and friendly. It was a very easy interview. However, she said that she did not have any department manager position, and she wanted to know if I was ready to accept a sales associate role. I told her that with my skills, experience and competencies I was expecting a more challenging role and I declined to accept the offer.
