I reached out to the store via phone call to inquire about any open positions.
I have previous experience at another location.
I was put through to the manager and he asked me to email over my resume.
Unfortunately they only had entry level positions available.

Question 1
Do you have experience in the graphics & signage industry
Intially very promising - but interviewer talked about all the negatives, didnt let anyone else talk, didnt sell me. I didnt think I would get the offer, but surprisingly did only to find out I had a timer going the second it was sent: 72 hours to take a drug test and to accept. I didnt need to negotiate any terms, but this letter was sent at 6pm on a friday and there was no way for me to meet those deadlines. I emailed immediately to explain, and they said they would revise the offer letter. A week later there was no update and the proposed start date was two weeks from then. I emailed to check in and it turned out everyone involved was out on vacation. I asked to postpone the start date until the letter was updated, they said they would and then the next thing i hear is that they are resinding the letter. No reason provided.
Met with manager who made me wait 45 minutes in the lobby . He was nice but distracted. I think a lot was going on and interviewing me was not a priority. The questions were pretty standard.
