I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Nordstrom (Bellevue, WA) in Sept 2012
Interview
My interview process was professional and I was made to feel very comfortabe. My experience was I came in and interviewed with Human Resources. I was then asked to come back to interview with the manager of my dwpartment who was fantastic and I left with the job so excited to work in my department and for my very experienced and knowledgable manager.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The difficult question was for me, "tell us a time there was a goal you did not meet?" I had a long pause, I really have always made sure I follow through and work towards any goal or challenge.
So easy, I went to a job fair and was hired on the spot. They need people in the kids department, that's the easiest section to get into. They just ask about your personality and who you are.
Was inside Barton creek mall, hiring manager was prompt and clear with questions ranging from how I would handle difficult customers, to my personal experiences that could apply to the job.
