I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Spenga (Valparaiso, IN) in Dec 2023
Interview
They had me do a phone interview and then come in to try a class. The moment I walked in I started choking on whatever scent they had pumped in. I'm allergic to lavender and asked if thats what they were pumping in. The owner said yes and asked if I was allergic. I said yes to which she responded "uh oh" in a very condescending tone. I said I actually was allergic and if we were going to continue I'd need to grab an antihistamine and my inhaler from my car. I did not get the job and I'm pretty sure it was because of my allergy though of course I can't prove this.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They asked if I'd be willing to be constantly take antihistamines as they refused to not pump in the lavender/lemongrass mixture.
