I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at The UPS Store (Holbrook, NY) in Aug 2013
Interview
Went into the store to ship a package and saw they were hiring, emailed my resume later that day. About 12 days later the owner called me to discuss my resume, and asked me to come in to interview later that day. Interview was fairly straight forward. Two days later, called me to schedule a second interview for the next day. Second interview lasted around 15 minutes and the job was offered to me immediately after the interview which only consisted of about three questions regarding dealing with customers. Throughout the entire process everybody was extremely friendly and helpful.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How would working here help you accomplish your goals?
Dropped off resume in store, then met with the manager in person where they asked about my experience and availability and then after a few days I had a follow up call with the senior manager.
The interview was engaging and insightful, highlighting my skills, experience, and career goals. It provided an opportunity to discuss my strengths, clarify expectations, demonstrate enthusiasm for the role, and showcase my problem-solving abilities.
Once you offer up your availability that’s the only time you’ll actually be considered highly no matter what low amount of qualifications you may or may not have. Pretty straightforward questions, none of the long term questions just short term goals questions.
