I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Rockler (Torrance, CA) in Oct 2020
Interview
Asked about how to treat the customers mostly.
Knowledge is a plus but enthusiasm is valued just as much.
Try to cover all demographics, all ages of customers.
It's even better if you shop there often, and subscribe to their email events.
