      Retail Sales Associate Interview

      Mar 12, 2010
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Waukegan, IL
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      The process took 1 day. I interviewed at OfficeMax (Waukegan, IL) in Mar 2010

      Interview

      I submitted an application via the website. Received a call from the store I was interested in working for 2-3 weeks later and scheduled an interview for the same day. The interview was extremely brief (<20min). The brevity was due, in part, to my strong qualifications for the position. I filled out paperwork for a background check and received documents to submit to drug testing. Results of both should be back in <72hrs and I should receive a formal offer at that time.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at OfficeMax (Bolingbrook, IL)

      Interview

      It was an odd interview . I cannot lie about products I need to be truthful about describing products . It’s against my beliefs to make things look better than they are actually.

      Anonymous interview candidate
      East Peoria, IL
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at OfficeMax (East Peoria, IL) in May 2018

      Interview

      Interview with Asst. Manager went well, was basically promised the job but then the Store Manager interview was a terrible experience. I ended up not getting the position due to one of my answers that the Store Manager thought meant I couldn't do the job but was exactly what the assistant manager needed for the store.
