Very energetic and engaging! You have to be a people person that delivers direct eye contact with assurance in your interview responses. Overall an excellent interview experience. I admired the passion the interviewer had for the department as if it was her newborn baby! My experience in retail was put under a microscope once becoming part of the Nordstrom full line department store. Very informative!
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What drive me to retail and why particularly customer service?
It was a simple phone call where they asked about my availability and whether I was able to work on certain days and at specific times during the week. The conversation mainly focused on scheduling and making sure my availability matched the needs of the position.
The interview process was straight forward, only one interview. The questions are simple, and after the interview I was to put together two different outfits for different events. That was the conclusion of the interview and then heard back two days later about proceeding.
I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Nordstrom (San Diego, CA)
Interview
Went in on one of the hiring days before holiday season, did an interview on the spot and was hired. Very simple process, low stress. The manager was very nice.
