I applied online. I interviewed at T.K. Maxx in Aug 2022
Interview
Very friendly, took about half an hour all together. Interviewed with one of the store managers and she first asked me to introduce myself and what I enjoy, and we had a nice chat. Then it went onto the actual interview and she asked about 6 questions if i remember correctly. Then asked about availability. It was a very easy and relaxing experience.
