Interviewed Dec 2011 in Arlington, TX (took 1 week)

I had seen a flyer go up about soon hiring at their newest store. I was excited and really wanted to work there. I immediatly filled out an online application. About a week later, I was invited to a group interview. The interview consisted of about 9 perspective applicants, all women 30 yrs of age or better which was refreshing and 2 managers. We were all assigned "homework" which consisted on an item from thier website and describe it to others. I know I blew it with this one. My excitement and nervousness overcame my response. I usually can sell really well, but being out of the work force and helping my husband with some business things that he had going, well, I really was not prepared. I was impressed though by the overall organized way that they projected themselves, the apperance of the room that we were interviewing in. I did appreciate the experience and maybe in the future I can try again.

Interviewed Oct 2010 in Coppell, TX (took 3 days)

The Container Store was very professional in its interview process. The initial interview lasted about 20 minutes and took place by phone. The second interview took place at their offices with the VP - Accounting and an HR representative. The third interview lasted about 2 hours, took place in three phases, and involved 5 people in the accounting department as well as an HR person. Each person showed an appreciation of the work environment and displayed obvious teamwork. Ultimately, they determined that the job description was, perhaps, not what they really needed now (a decision obviously made by the team) and decided not to fill the position at this time. I appreciated that they phoned me to relay this information.l
