I applied in-person. I interviewed at Canadian Tire (Markham, ON) in Jun 2022
Interview
Did this interview while in high school. Was asked basic questions about future plans, grades as well as past customer service experience. Very casual interview as it is a retail position.
Extremely straightforward questions, mainly behavioural. Questions like "tell me about a time you had a challenge and how did you deal with it?" I would advise to have some answers prepared for very basic questions, have some specific examples of your own experiences that you can tailor to each question.

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Canadian Tire (Toronto, ON)
Interview
Often a single in-person interview with the store manager or department supervisor; sometimes a short phone screening first. Focus on customer service, teamwork, availability, and handling busy or difficult situations.
just a conversation with the manager to see if you are good at socializing as you will be greeting a lot of people. no hard questions, just simple behavioural ones and going through resume experience
