I called David's Bridal to see if they were hiring and was told that they were and were holding an open interview in a few days and told me the times. I showed up about an hour early to give myself plenty of time to fill out an application. I left to kill some time and came back at exactly 2:30, when they had me wait for almost 10 minutes for others to show up. There were three interviewees and two employees to interview us. I went in with the Bridal consultant position in mind, and it seemed that the other girls were there for customer service, which they had few hours open for. I was qualified for the bridal consultant position but because I had mentioned a weekend schedule conflict, they told me that I might be wasting my time. I stayed for more questions, saying that I was open to the customer service position as well, which was when they told us that there were about 10 hours/wk available (not enough for one person, let alone three). At this point I had given up hope until they asked "Why David's Bridal?". I told them that basically I love weddings and I love dresses - particularly sewing them, which was when they asked me how I felt about alterations. I had not considered starting in that position because all of my experience is self-taught and non-professional (more of a hobby at first but something I intend to go to school for soon). One woman escorted me out of the interview to get me a card of the (at that time, absent) Alterations manager for me to call the next day. I did so and scheduled a meeting for later that day. I showed her some of my work I've done for myself and she had me do a few sewing tests. After I finished, she asked for my DL and SS card, and we went to another room to fill out a form and make a phone call to some tax... thing. I haven't had many jobs so I was still under the impression that I was still only being considered for the position, not already in. I was asked after the tests and giving my cards if I was still interested and I answered positively. I found out that I was hired though the woman on the phone for the tax thing when she asked what the date of hire was, and I realized that they would not be having me make this call if I wasn't already hired or being hired. The women were very nice and polite and things happened very quickly but they could have been a little more organized and I would have liked to know what was going on and that I had gotten the job for sure without being told by someone outside the company. I am currently awaiting a phone call telling me when I can come in to begin training. This all started Monday, the open interview on Wednesday, and today is Friday.
