I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Ross Stores (Chicago, IL) in Dec 2020
Interview
The interview process was straight to the point and quick. I met with the store manager and I got the job on the spot. They mainly want to know that you have availability and are reliable.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe youre background/experience? What's your availability?
Very lowkey. They asked basic interview questions. They just wanted to know availability for work and if you’re available during their most busy hours. Nothing super professional, but they want to make sure you’re going to actually come into work.
it was very pleasant and they will almost always hire you if you are a tolerable person who can work hard and well with others. It would be strange to not hear back from them within a week due to how much demand they usually have for employees.
When arriving, they do accommodate you to sit in the break room while waiting on an interview, which is great because you’re not standing around the store looking crazy. When you get in the back and we’ll meet with the Store Manager or an assistant manager short it seems rushed like they genuinely didn’t have time set aside for interviews. They were trying to move along candidates.
