Interview
After completing the initial HR screening and almost 2 weeks after the initial call, I was invited to spend an on-site training/screening day at the store. I was given a mission to decorate/display the outdoor section. It was a pleasant experience, there was a kitchen for the employees inside offering fresh meals. The vibes overall are hectic but upbeat.
