I applied through other source. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Converse
Interview
I originally applied through an ad on craigslist when the store first opened here in Hawaii. Now, all applications are submitted through the Converse website. I was called soon after submitting my resume for a pre-screening/phone interview. The pre-screening was pretty much verifying everything that was on my resume plus a couple questions about availability. I was then asked to attend a group interview. tips for interviewees
-dress the part: dont come in business attire.... be a rebel and wear your favorite pair of chucks.
-dont show up too early... 5-7 minutes prior to interview time is perfect.
-be on the ball. Listen carefully to questions and don't look like a deer in the headlights
-relax. and be yourself!
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
You can expect a lot of specific, situation based, or behavioral questions like:
Tell me a time you were involved in a conflict in the work place?
Tell me a time when you were unable to complete a task?
Tell me a time when you had a difficult customer situation and how did you handle it?
ALSO!! Why do you want to work for converse??!! Show your passion for the brand and you'll be sure to get hired.
Normal Interview process. Tell me about yourself etc. I would talk about your love for converse too. Make sure you are a team person. There is a lot of teamwork.
It was an online interview, self explanatory. Record yourself answering the prompts given. They gave about 2-3 mins to answer each question, and you get to review how you answered if you did not like your first take.

Question 1
What was one incident that you had to step up as an individual.
It was easy and laid back. I did the interview in the back stock room and it was very low pressure/difficulty. We did the basic interview questions and I was offered the job on the spot.
