I applied through other source. I interviewed at Furniture Row (South Bend, IN) in Mar 2026
Interview
The process itself was nice and the environment was comfortable. I spoke with one man who was upbeat and pretty happy to see me and passed me onto the next interview quickly. I spoke to Ola next who I believe was the stores GM. He was well collected and thoughtful in his questions while getting to the point.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is the difference between a boss and a leader?
Completely unnecessary to have a three-stage interview process. In the first two interviews, the store managers didn't even seem prepared for my arrival. One manager even stated that they are looking for sales experience, even though the position I applied for was a trainee position.
The process to become an assistant manager is lengthy and can be mentally trying. They don't want you to stay in your home state/town, but they're willing to pay your moving expenses.

Question 1
Are you willing to move to another state for a promotion? People who aren't willing usually can't promote.
