Interview
Interviewed with store manager. Typical sales associate questions and probably checked for personality fit. Only one interview and was more of a formality to be honest. Ended up being a pretty chill job.

Question 1
What is one thing your previous boss would say is good about your work ethic, and what about something you can improve on?
I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Brookstone in Apr 2023

Simple "sell me this pen" questions, availability, and salary requirements. Very standard and straight to the point. Explained the benefits and company structure along with my previous work experience. It was a job fair so it was all on the spot

Question 1
Sell me this Pen and why do you want to work in sales?
Pretty simple, basic questions. Be prepared to speak about skills and availability as well as work history. Interest in gadgets and talking to people is helpful. Flexibility is a plus as you may be asked to do different jobs.
