JCPenney Customer Service Sales Associate interview questions

The hiring process was basic. Applied online, got a call about a week later for an interview. Turned out to be a group interview. Was asked a few questions with the group, then everyone went to the next room to watch some customer service videos. After, we did an activity where everyone took a turn looking at a structure made of small wooden colored blocks on an iPad for 20 seconds, and instructed the rest of the team how to build it strictly verbally without the use of the picture.

I applied to JC Penney on July 3rd and I got a call back on July 6th. The initial call was a mini interview. She asked me a few questions that needed little to no knowledge of anything really. She asked about my work experience, what did I do there, why did I leave my last job, have I worked since then, my availability, do I have transportation & things like that. I had the interview later on that week. It was a group interview and it's basically just going through a lot of scenarios. First they give you a product that you have to do a pitch for like on shark tank and then you work with the group to see which product would be best and then you pitch that product to the manager or whoever is interviewing you, and then you do roleplaying where they are the customer and you have to help them pick out what they need. After that was over, she called us individually to another room and asked a few more questions, I listed a few of those questions below. She informed me of their salary(which is 9.00 an hour) and that a background check would have to be cleared before I could be hired and she said that can take up to a week. The whole process took about 25 to 30 minutes. The woman was very nice and welcoming. I felt like I missed up a couple times but she said I did well.
