It was pretty easy, the questions were stereotypical and the hiring process was really fast. By stereotypical i mean questions like "tell us about yourself", strengths and weaknesses, past experiences, and why you think you want to work for them. After that, they called me back on the same day which was surprising, not sure if this would be the same for all the stores or all individuals.

The interview was mostly a one-on-one conversation and overall it was fairly simple. As long as your personality and work style align with the culture and expectations of that specific location, you should do just fine.
