Interview questions [1]
Question 1
they are going to ask about if carrying boxes will be a problem and if you are applying for a part time job and you would only stay for the summer, its most likely you won't get the job.
I interviewed at Pier 1 Imports (Fort Collins, CO)
Interview
It was about 30 minutes long. The manager asked me basic questions about myself and the job. He wanted to know my availability and if I were able to unload the truck due to the boxes being heavy.
Simple and transparent process. After applying, was asked to come in to interview in person. Interview was professional and took around 45 minutes. Heard back from hiring manager within a week.
