Candidatei-me online. O processo levou 2 semanas. Fiz uma entrevista na empresa Micro Center.
Entrevista
I got asked to do a phone interview about a week after I applied. It was pretty straight forward and none of the questions caught me off guard. The guy interviewing liked being asked questions, so don't be afraid to ask if you have any.
Afterwards I did two online exams - one was a 12 minute timed IQ test and the other was an ethics/personality test. This was weird. it seemed like a bit much for a retail job.
After that I got called in to do an in-person interview with the General Sales Manager and the Store GM. Both seemed like nice people but the job started to reek of corporate sleeze. Heavily pushed metrics on me and how important it was for me to make sure customers hand over their personal info and buy warranty plans. They had a funny euphemism for the warranty plans too - I wish I could remember it. I love the store, but I decided the sales/retail company culture wasn't for me, so I declined the job.
Easy quick test of knowledge in tech and math to make sure it works the way they should. A couple quick question on why you want to work there and a quick test to see if you can determine real and fake cash.

Phone Interview/ In Person Interview/Aptitude Test
Seemed to go okay but there were delays in responses. I noticed there were more men employed there than women- my resume might have been not the best it could to showcase my history in retail/management/csr/merchandising.
It seemed to go smoothly for a short while, and the 2nd manager offered me a role and i accepted- then after i took my test i was ghosted with no response.
I figured then I was rejected, could have been the test, not sure- I was running an errand that day, and i went in store to check and the manager who initially offered me a role seemed *uncomfortable* that i was there and I felt a bit unwanted. So that left a weird impression on me- perhaps its because they don't have a phone, and felt put on the spot?
It was a dampener of my previous shopping experiences there and i felt a bit judged against then with the managers discomfort of my presence.
I am unaware if they found me offensive somehow or if they just didn't want to hire a woman at that time- but being ghosted was a bit unwelcoming.
I'm a customer too-
A normal rejection would have been more polite.
