Interview
I applied online and within a few days the Customer Service Team Leader contacted my self over the phone. She asked me about my leadership style and how I've handled difficult guests. She brought me into a panel interview with another leader and asked me about myself and how do I handle different personality types and about my previous jobs.
They asked me about how I could communicate to the cashiers that they were wearing pirate gear as the main uniform. Also asked me if I was a book or movie buff
and then asked me what book and character would best represent myself. Finally, asked me about my availability.
After that interview, I interviewed with the main store leader. Asked me about my previous job experiences and how I would fit into this job.

Interview questions [2]
Question 1
If a team member has problems with the Team Leader and overhear the team member saying negative comments. What are the steps you would take to handle the situation?
The interview process was detailed. Depending on the store location, you have to complete due diligence, create an action plan, and then interview with store leadership , other supervisors and a couple team members. Get prepared for a good bunch of folks but just being yourself, being honest, and having personality will help the process.
