I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at JCPenney in May 2010
Interview
Personally, my interview was quite simple. More about availability and telling me about the job and asking if I thought I could handle such tasks. Didn't last more than few minutes. Started off with about 10 of us, store manager told us about JC Penny as a company, their goals, and how they value their company. Then broke off into 1 on 1 interviews with the store manager, sales manager, and a department manager.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How do you feel about interacting with customers and putting them first?
It was fairly straightforward and easy. The woman I interviewed with was nice and not very intimidating. They took about a week to get back with me about an interview after I applied for the position.
I applied online. I interviewed at JCPenney (Alpharetta, GA) in Sep 2024
Interview
I was contacted by email about my application. Contacted HR Supervisor and scheduled an interview date and time. Met with HR the next day for an in person interview. Very informative conversation with HR Supervisor.
Very efficient and the interviewer was very nice and gave me a lot of time to answer questions. The questions were not hard and they were very manageable. It was more so a discussion rather than an interview.
