I applied in-person. I interviewed at HomeGoods (Port Jefferson Station, NY) in Sep 2011
Interview
At the time when I applied there were two very good managers who are no longer there. The interview process was laid back and comfortable. They asked logical questions about past employment, skills, hours available etc. At the time there was little room for salary negotiation for the initial job and the raises were nominal in the first year. Once they realized I was committed and saw my worth then the raises were a bit better, which I understand because in retail the employee turnover is so high. I was able to negotiate my salary once I became a Customer Service Coordinator.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
As I said above they asked logical questions such as past employment, skills, hours available to work, etc.
It was very peronsable. Really wanted to make sure the people working there really care about the product and customers. I felt like they wanted to build a community so really talking about your passion for continuing your career with them as they have so many jobs that you can make your way up.
I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at HomeGoods (Woodbridge, NJ) in Oct 2023
Interview
Interview process was very short. Igot called in for an Interview twi days after I submitted the application. I Spent roughly 15 minutes with the hiring manager. It took them 3 weeks to run a background check, and get thier orientation started.
Very simple , straight to the point. Homegoods wants you to make sure the store is clean and up to part. Make sure you know each aisle for the customers
