FT Supervisor at PUMA
No Offer – Interviewed in Wrentham, MA Apr 2012 – Reviewed Jun 4, 2012
Interview Details – I interviewed with the assistant manager. She was pleasant, and asked quite a few questions. She seemed impressed with my answers but then told me that I would have to call her store manager, who avoided each and every one of my phone calls and never returned them. I would have appreciated some acknowledgement even if it was that I was not going to be offered the position.

Sales Associate at PUMA
Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Philadelphia, PA Sep 2008 – Reviewed Apr 8, 2010
Interview Details – The interview was very short and simple. A friend of mine (with a good reputation) was currently employed at this location already so the interviewer was already convinced that I was qualified for the job and he didn't even ask me any questions. I took the drug test, and a week later I was working part time as a sales associate.
Interview Question – I was never asked any questions. Answer Question

Marketing at PUMA
No Offer – Interviewed in Boston, MA Apr 2008 – Reviewed Jan 7, 2010
Interview Details –
First part of the interview was with the HR Manager and then the outgoing marketing manager. They asked about my background and experience and my contribution to Puma.
Second interview, I met with the sales director and asked me about the Tretorn brand. I mentioned that it was originated in Europe. He corrected me saying that it is an Scandinavia brand - the last time I checked Scandinavia is part of Europe. Didn't correct him, but felt that the interview was going nowhere.
Met with the Product Manager. During the whole interview she told me how awful it is to work for Puma. The meeting lasted for 1 hr. I didn't get a chance to say a word.
My last interview was with the Marketing Director. A very young guy. Unlike the Product Manager, he just sat there and asked me to talk about myself. No question. I thought he was falling asleep.
Did not hear back from Puma. Had to contact the HR Manager to find out that I was not hired.

Interview Details – Very basic interview; asked basic sales questions, as well as a few odd-ball questions thrown in randomly to see if you could think on your feet. Had to take a drug test before I could start work, as well as go through a background check. I found out about a week after my interview and drug-test that I had been offered the job.
