Easy Interview
Application
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Scholastic (Charlotte, NC) in September 2012.
Interview
Was lied to about the lenght of the job. Was told we would be seasonals and called back during high volumn times then they hired a second shift and let all of us go. Some people change their lives to take these positions. They quit other jobs, losts benefits, moved kids from schools to work with this company.
Interview Questions
Nothing. Should have known it was to good to be true. Answer Question
Negotiation
Promising but all lies which was admitted in the end.
