I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Ross Stores (Kissimmee, FL) in Sep 2013
Interview
I received a phone call for an interview & when I got there, I found out it was a "group" interview. Our interviewer was more than 25 minutes late & he spent most of the interview speaking Spanish because everyone but another girl & myself were Hispanic. He was very rude towards that girl and I, which gave off the vibe that he was extremely bias considering everyone working at that Ross were also Hispanic + including himself. He brought us to the back of the store and spoke to us as a group and then interviewed us individually one at a time in front of each other. I was the only one with retail experience and he didn't even bother to ask me more than a couple questions that were irrelevant to the job and it was the most unprofessional interview I have ever been to. I felt uncomfortable the whole entire time and I only applied there because I was looking for a second job.
it was very pleasant and they will almost always hire you if you are a tolerable person who can work hard and well with others. It would be strange to not hear back from them within a week due to how much demand they usually have for employees.
Very lowkey. They asked basic interview questions. They just wanted to know availability for work and if you’re available during their most busy hours. Nothing super professional, but they want to make sure you’re going to actually come into work.
When arriving, they do accommodate you to sit in the break room while waiting on an interview, which is great because you’re not standing around the store looking crazy. When you get in the back and we’ll meet with the Store Manager or an assistant manager short it seems rushed like they genuinely didn’t have time set aside for interviews. They were trying to move along candidates.
