Interview
Received a phone call that I was invited to a group interview at a hotel. The new store was not finished yet. The group interview went smoothly with multiple groups running simultaneously. It was a relaxed atmosphere. They made their decisions on the spot. My advice is don't be an over-achiever, that individual in our group did not get an offer.
Very straightforward and friendly, one stage phone interview. Received offer within the same week. Didn’t have to undergo any background checks or references. Was asked basic questions regarding my work experience and background

Interview
Group interview setting. It wasn't very stressful and it was nice to base your answers on what others are saying. Be prepared to talk about how you align with the company's values of getting outdoors as well as any previous customer service experience you bring to the table.
