Very Easy Interview

Overall Positive Experience

Interviewed and No Offer

Interviewed Oct 2011 in San Diego, CA (took 2 weeks)

Applied online as instructed. About 2 weeks later, I got an email from HR asking to set up a phone interview, giving me several times/dates to choose from. An HR rep called me at appointed time and asked me a couple procedural type questions to confirm info on my application. After a few minutes, she said that she didn't think that it would be a good fit because I was way overqualified for the position and she thought I would be bored. She invited me to apply for some of the manager positions available online and was very helpful, saying that I could contact her directly if I was interested in any of the other available positions. After looking at the open positions, I didn't see anything that I felt was a good fit, so that was the end of that. Overall, a good experience and the person I spoke to seemed organized and friendly.

Interviewed May 2011 in San Diego, CA (took 4 weeks)

Standard process. First I was contacted by a HR representative who asked basic questions and was very concerned with expected salary range. I got the impression that they are more concerned with pay then quality. Based on how the responded and asked follow up salary questions they are paying below market value. Also if you dont answer that is the end of the process for you, they are very clear about that.

Second was an in person interview with HR again (behavioral questions) and 1:1 with the hiring manager.

After the fact I found out the position was offered to a former classmate of the hiring manager.

Interviewed Nov 2010 in San Diego, CA (took 4 weeks)

I attended one of their monthly job fairs and a few weeks later was contacted by an HR Recruiter. The Recruiter asked basic questions about my resume, my interest in the company, and my expected salary range. They wouldn't confirm what their internal salary range was but it was made clear if my range didn't match what they expected then I wouldn't be moved forward.

After the HR interview I was scheduled for a 2 interviews on the same day, a 1:1 with HR followed by a 1:1 with the hiring manager. The HR interview consisted of standard behaviorial questions and they took lots of notes. The 1:1 with the hiring manager was more informal almost conversational allowing the line of questioning to easily change.

I was not offered the position and I believe it was because I was looking for the high end of their salary range. They clearly are focused on finding lower paid associates.
