I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Hot Topic (West Nyack, NY)
Interview
First interview was very casual, discussing career history, customer service philosophy, team building, accountability and loss prevention. Second interview was more indepth, discussing needs of this store's business, current team, past experiences with leading change to steer sales and loss prevention efforts... more of a "What will YOU do?"
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What do you do when execution of action plans result in failure? What does the accountability look like?
