Hiring managers prioritize your personality, availability, and customer service mindset, looking for candidates who are friendly, adaptable, reliable, and comfortable engaging with customers, rather than focusing heavily on prior experience or technical skills.

Application
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Victoria's Secret (New Toronto, ON) in Aug 2016
Interview
Mostly questions about yourself, past work experience and how you’ve dealt with customer situations. They’ll ask you question about certain customer experiences you may have been put into and want to see how you will handle yourself.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about yourself?
What prior work experience do you have?
What can you bring to this company?
What is a positive experience you’ve had with a customer?
What is a positive experience you’ve had in our store?
Very easy, first a phone call then meeting in person. Took a while to be seen in person even after the scheduled meeting time, they had me just kind of stand in a corner for a while waiting for someone to become available.
