I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Victoria's Secret (Ottawa, ON)
Interview
Super casual and friendly, asked why you want to work here, what you like about the store. Mostly a general check on attitude and sociability. Being friendly, open, and inviting seems to be a good sign of someone to succeed in such a customer service role.
Hiring managers prioritize your personality, availability, and customer service mindset, looking for candidates who are friendly, adaptable, reliable, and comfortable engaging with customers, rather than focusing heavily on prior experience or technical skills.
Very easy, first a phone call then meeting in person. Took a while to be seen in person even after the scheduled meeting time, they had me just kind of stand in a corner for a while waiting for someone to become available.
