I applied online. I interviewed at Ross Stores (Carmichael, CA) in Apr 2025
Interview
No real inquiries into skills, more questions about customer service scenarios. Assume your skills for the job have been screened and put your reaction time to questions about your approachability, instead of your efficiency, be put to the test.
Ask about expectations and determine if it's the right fit. Speed of service is a direct expectation throughout employment, and it's seldom emphasized in your interview.

Question 1
What do you do in a situation where someone is having a bad day and doesn't like you?
It was a group interview, but very easy, received the offer almost right away after verifying I'd be able to complete the required tasks. Manager was very kind, but clear and concise on requirements. Took about 20 minutes

Interview
Called in for interview pretty quickly. It’s not hard at all, especially if you’ve worked in retail before. Probably received a call back within 2 days after applying. Went in for interview & was told on the spot that i got the job.
The process was smooth. The location I worked at was good. They were very flexible with my schedule since I was still in college. Communication is good. Overall, good experience.
