Anonymous Interview Candidate in Keller, TX
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Mattress Firm (Keller, TX) in Nov 2023
Recruiter is curious as to whether or not 10.88 was an okay hourly rate. Interviewer was very unsure of himself and kept deflecting questions about pay and foot traffic. He kept deflecting questions saying, " I can't answer that" and " the district manager has more knowledge on that."

Interviewing is very rigorous and is mostly personality based. The job is 100% a commission sales position and they are looking for charming people more than anything else. If you get along well with other people and are comfortable talking about yourself, you'll do well.
- I don't remember the exact questions, but I know that they gave a few hypotheticals on how you would advise someone who is having reservations about price. The majority of sales will be done with financing. The financing has a predatorily high interest rate, so keep that in mind when you're applying. If you don't want to take advantage of people daily, don't apply to this job.
