I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Pier 1 Imports (Salt Lake City, UT) in Jan 2011
Interview
Relaxed but professional. Manager was friendly and straight forward with the interview. Asked questions directly about the job and position although asked a couple of personal questions during the interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe a time you had to deal with a difficult customer and how did you handle the situation.
I interviewed at Pier 1 Imports (Fort Collins, CO)
Interview
It was about 30 minutes long. The manager asked me basic questions about myself and the job. He wanted to know my availability and if I were able to unload the truck due to the boxes being heavy.
Simple and transparent process. After applying, was asked to come in to interview in person. Interview was professional and took around 45 minutes. Heard back from hiring manager within a week.
