francesca's Interview Questions

Application

I applied online. The process took a week. I interviewed at francesca's (Grand Rapids, MI) in March 2015.

Interview

First interview was over the phone - very basic; asking about skills, past jobs, where you might need improvement as a manager, etc. 2nd interview was in person and delved a little deeper, also talking about salary requirements.

I want to mention that Francesca's doesnt allow ANY piercings (except ears). I have a small nose piercing (and have had it for YEARS) and it cost me this position because I was unwilling to remove it for work.

There was an initial phone interview when I was contacted about the job. The call was from the store manager of the store where I had applied. We then scheduled a 1:1 interview at the store location. This interview lasted about 30 minutes and there were a serious of set questions that she asked. Overall the feel was very positive and it seemed like a great place to work.

Interview

I got a call 2 days after I submitted for the position online. We did my first interview with the store manager in-store that week. The same day, I was called to setup distric manager interview that next week in-store. Later that day I was called and offered the position and a higher pay rate than I previously said I would be okay with. Interviews were both over an hour. Chst like a girlfriend would - but work related topics, or traffic getting to the interview (only if you made it on time anyway), or how much you're interested in the company...forever and ever and always, come with questions to ask!!!

Interview

HR Department does an excellent Job, the whole company model however is complete garbage. In detail; they under qualified, disrespectful, rude and inconsiderate of employees and their personal life. Managers will not hesitate to call you at 9:00 o clock at night to ask you about work related duties.

Interview Questions

Negotiation

At the time I was starting to get my basic experience in IT. DO NOT make plans to advance in this company, they play favorites to the point of where it could probably be filed under discrimination.

Interview

Not much of a process. Submitted resume online was called by recruiter to set up phone interview. Had initial interview witb recruiter, 2ND interview with regional manager. Was hired without meeting anyone in person. No questions to stump me at all, was a very easy process. Recruiters seem clueless as to what a retail manager actually does.
