Group interview. Interviewer asked questions and whoever wanted to answer first would answer and so on. Standard retail questions were asked like what to do in certain situations so they can see how prepared you’ve are.

Entretien
The interview was very casual, I was taken into one of the offices in the back and was told I was going to be asked a series of questions. Before the interview started I was asked to tell the manager about myself. The manager made me feel comfortable and at ease. She told me that she had a few other interviews early that week and she would let me know. I didn't hear for about another 2 weeks and decided to send an email asking about the hiring process. Another 2 weeks went by and no reply. I finally decided to call and ask, she said she had already picked someone for the position but I was fantastic and to apply again in the future. I don't think I got the job since this would of been my first job and it seemed she wanted someone with some sort of retail experience.

I went through numerous interviews. The manager made me feel very calm and chill. I was offered a position pending a background check. I have no record so this should be a piece of cake right? Nope, my background check was taking seemingly longer than normal and every time I called to check in I was told it hadn’t come back yet/“probably backed up in the system”. Turns out that JCPenny has a 2 week policy where if the check doesn’t come back within that time they move on with another candidate. They never informed me of this and it went on for over a month before they did. Not only that, but turns out my background check did come back in time, they just “weren’t aware of it”. My advice would be to not be afraid to check in and keep the lines of communication open during the hiring process.

It was about 15 minutes long and they kept asking me to work the dock (stock) even though I had applied for sales. My background was and has been in sales so I was confused as to why she wanted me there. When I said no she then proceeded to ask me if I would be interested in a home decor position instead. Not the position I applied for.
