Review from Communications Dept
My own interview was fine; it just takes a long time to make offers, check references, get new hires approved.
It was non-threatening or intimidating.
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
10 weeks to get hired?! It's retail, minimum wage; complete lack of communication between corporate and local
Dont just throw people out there
There are forms pre signed for the hiring process.
Let the professionals (not the officers) do the interview. A person should not be hired because they had a cute dress on. One gentleman (who was qualified for the position) was not hired because his shirt was wrinkly.
Be on time, I was offered a salary that was changed at date of hire, very unprofessional
Review from Operations Dept
Explain the work week day hours etc. don't promise employees hours and then don't for fill your promise
It took me about an actual month to get officially hired and I was told I’d be the assistant manager as all my duties were of an assistant manager yet I was labeled as senior sales associate because of jealousy that customers enjoyed coming in to talk to me and not the manage
