I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at TJ Maxx (Palatine, IL) in Jun 2015
Interview
It was harder than I thought. I dropped off paper application, came in for an in-depth interview with the store operations manager who asked very pointed questions. I must have done well because I was hired within a week.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe a difficult customer and how you would engage with them
very simple, easy questions, quick and under 30 mins. know that they have a front of house and back of house; back of house typically unloads the truck in the morning.
It was a pretty basic interview, they asked all the typical interview questions. Got me in and out and were super nice. They said to dress business casual and gave me time to ask any questions I had
Professional and engaging interview process. The staff was welcoming as I visited the local store. They led me to the hiring manager who was energetic, displayed great communicable skills, and knowledgeable. I was engaged in an interview with seasoned managerial presence, history, and associate expectations. I'm delighted to join the TJ Maxx family!
