Customer Service Representative at Blockbuster
Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Jun 2009 – Reviewed Apr 19, 2013
Interview Details Very straightforward and friendly interview. They asked me questions regarding my favorite movies, whether i liked working with people, and to talk about different situations in previous jobs that I held in the past. It was very low-key and nothing too surprising was asked. I met with the outgoing store manager, and the person being promoted to take his place as store manager.
