Signet Jewelers interview questions

I applied online to both a JBR and Kay's stores in the same area. The next day I received a phone call from the managers from each of the stores, looking to set up an interview. The first was JBR. It was extremely comfortable, and felt more like a conversation about sales and retail instead of just an interview where I was getting drilled. We ended up talking for over an hour, and I was told I'd be called back for a second interview with the Kay's manager, pending I pass a couple online personality tests. I had an interview with Kay's set up for the next week. The Kay's interview again felt more like a conversation, and only last about half an hour. I was told the beginning rate would probably be a lot lower than my current position, but they would put me on the "fast track" to becoming a manager, and I would probably be promoted within 6 months. A few days after the interview I was called in so they could make me an offer. i absolutely would have taken it - all of the employees I had met were amazing and spoke very highly of the company, but I just couldn't take the deep cut in pay from my current position so I had to decline. One note, they absolutely promote from within, and everyone starts at the sales associate level which I think is great, but unfortunate for those who can't afford to live on that salary. I think this would be a great position for someone currently in school, or someone with sales experience and little responsibilities when it comes to bills. Knowing what I know now about the company, I wish I had looked into it a few years ago. Even though I didn't accept, I would highly recommend Sterling to others and I don't have anything negative to say about the company or interview process.

After passing a background check and credit check, I was interviewed by the new manager of the department. To work with diamonds and gems, you have to have a good credit standing, especially since we work in the vault.. The interview was simple since the position was entry-level and mostly data entry based.
