I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Build-A-Bear (Detroit, MI) in Oct 2016
Interview
Filled out paper application in store, got interviewed a few days later and part of the interview is taking an online test that tells the manager if you will be right for the company.
Basic questions, asked about sewing, experience with kids, knowledge on the company, days I’m free ect ect ect ect. Had a brilliant interview and got the job, would work there again if I didn’t move
Group interview and then 1:1 - was simple enough and felt very relaxed. Nice team and then found out about 1 week later. Was a Christmas temp job so was quite a lot of people there and wanting to apply
