I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Payless ShoeSource (West Boylston, MA) in Mar 2014
Interview
I applied online then I was contacted a few days later via telephone by the store manager to come in and interview. I was interviewed in person starting with basic personality questions (strengths, weaknesses, interests, and reasons for working here) then I was asked to role play a sale situation.
I passed and started quickly. The process was simple and not intimidating. Everything felt straightforward, and I would definitely recommend it to others looking for an easy experience. I enjoy working here.
I applied in-person. I interviewed at Payless ShoeSource (Anchorage, AK) in Aug 2025
