What did you like most about the interview process?Personable conversation, simply wanted to get to know me and see if I would be the right fit for the team.
What did you like most about the interview process?I was hited on the spot. Interviewed by a manger whos no longer there but made it super easy for the hiring process and training.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?My store and I feel undervalued from our DM and our current GM.
