      Assistant Manager Interview

      Dec 16, 2022
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Grand Rapids, MI
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Goodwill (Grand Rapids, MI) in Nov 2022

      Interview

      I applied online and received an email inviting me for an interview. Store manager was very nice, she invited the regional manager to a video call to speed up the process. They both asked some tough but very good questions. The video call was ended but the manager continued to give more in depth information about the store's internal operation and the hours of the position. She had me fill out a background check form in case they decide to continue with the hiring process. She said she would contact me regardless of whether or not they would be pursuing me, but I never heard back.

      Interview questions [4]

      Question 1

      How many people did you manage in your last management position?
      Answer question

      Question 2

      Do you have experience handling cash and making bank deposits? Do you have the transportation necessary to do bank runs/deposits?
      Answer question

      Question 3

      How would you handle this situation: a customer is throwing a tantrum in the store, threatening customers and staff, and refusing to leave? (This had actually happened prior to my interview, so they compared my response to Store Manager's response)
      Answer question

      Question 4

      Why did you leave your previous jobs?
      Answer question

      Assistant Manager Interview

      Feb 21, 2024
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Jacksonville, FL
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Goodwill (Jacksonville, FL) in Dec 2023

      Interview

      The interviewing manager forgot our meeting and went to lunch. I had to wait for over 20 minutes for her to return. When she did return she told me that she forgot about it and thought it was earlier but just decided to go to lunch. She was very disorganized and kind of all over. I don't recommend working here. If the manager can't remember a scheduled interview how can she run an entire store.
