The main interview is usually in-store with the manager or supervisor, and it can be either one-on-one or in a group format. They ask simple questions like why you want to work there, your availability, and what good customer service means to you. In some cases, they might give situational questions or a quick role-play, like showing how you’d sell a product or handle a difficult customer.
