Sales Associate at Hancock Fabrics
No Offer – Interviewed in Forestville, MD Apr 2011 – Reviewed May 9, 2012
Interview Details – I initially submitted a number of applications and after yet another change in store-level management during a store visit finally finagled an actual interview. Interview process was very long and drawn out, that was the first sign. Interviewer promised to get back with me within the next couple of days-nothing. I telephoned the office, spoke to interviewer/manager, needed to get back to me-I telephoned again, left message and she never returned my call. Some 6-8 weeks later, upon a chance encounter making a fabric purchase, I inquired about an open position and was offered the job!

Reason for Declining –
My gut says that the DM's are told to micro manage, load on the hours, and burn them and turn them; till the next candidate comes along.
I'm looking for the long haul in a culture of respect.
