I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Gap
Interview
I simply just submit an applications and two days later the GM called me for an interview which took about 25min. She wanted me to tell her about me, then go on for the two initial questions that first of all what do you think about good customer service?, second of all saying how would you handle the multitasking job environment especially during those holiday seasons? I pretty much answered the way I believe about customer by making an example of my experience from this particular GAP store. Also, about the multitasking, I'm super organized and well managing of time as making a priority of the tasks, so not much a big of a deal being a multitasker. The GM pretty much liked the whole answers I gave her, and got an offer after a day from the interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Nothing difficult or unexpected, but two initial question were what do you think good customer service and how would you handle the multitasking job environment during the busiest seasons like holidays.
Group interview with other candidates with the store manager. Arrive at the store and wait for other candidates. Then interview happens in break room and it lasted roughly about 30-60minutes
It was a group interview of about 10-12 people. If I remember correctly they take you to the back, the stock room, and ask almost everyone the same question. The interview lasted about 30 minutes.
It was very easy, one in person interview with the general manager and then I was accepted! Mainly personality and behavioral questions were asked, and I think enthusiasm on my end helped the most.
