I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Sears (Manchester, NH) in Jun 2012
Interview
After completing the online application and assesment, a list of interview times came up, I selected my interview time and it was scheduled. I met with one woman, was never told her position and she asked some questions from a form and she spoke about several different positions available. She then had me meet with a department manager who asked some questions and then took me on a tour of the store. We went back to the office and the first woman asked for my license and SS card for my I9 and then she had me complete some forms on the computer, including an automatic deposit form. She scheduled a drug test and told me they were running a criminal background check. I asked if I was hired and she said yes. I then asked what the pay would be and she said $7.25. I did not accept the job.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Lots of scenario type questions like "how would you handle..." or "tell me about a time when..." Be prepared with good customer service experiences and problem solving skills.
The interview process was alright. Not the worst interview process but also not the best interview process. I would go through the process again. I would recommend the interview process to others
I applied in-person. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Sears (Clay, NY)
Interview
It was my first job, and it was a fairly standard interview at the time. It was difficult, because the hiring manager was not there, despite having should been. I was told to check back for three days in a row, before the person that made me the offer just happened to be there and decided to conduct an interview after three days of checking back.
The interview process at Sears was simple and straightforward—just one interview with basic questions about availability, work experience, and customer service. I felt comfortable and got hired quickly. I started off as seasonal
