Me postulé en persona. Acudí a una entrevista en Foot Locker (Mississauga, ON)
Entrevista
1. Application & Screening
After applying, recruiters review your resume and cover letter.
If you meet the requirements, you may get a phone or video screening with HR to confirm basic qualifications, availability, and interest in the role.
2. First Interview (Behavioral / Fit)
Often conducted by a recruiter or hiring manager.
Focuses on your experience, skills, and motivation for applying.
You’ll be asked behavioral questions (e.g., “Tell me about a time you dealt with a difficult customer”).
3. Second Interview (Technical / Situational)
For some roles, you’ll face role-specific questions or even short exercises.
Example: Customer service roles may include scenario-based questions (“How would you handle an upset client?”).
This step checks your problem-solving, communication, and practical knowledge.
4. Final Interview / Panel
May involve multiple team members or managers.
Covers both culture fit and competency.
Employers look at how you’d collaborate with the team and adapt to the company’s environment.
5. Assessment / Testing (if required)
Some companies include assessments like:
Role-play exercises
Written or technical tests
Personality or cognitive ability assessments
6. Offer & Onboarding
If successful, you’ll get a job offer (sometimes contingent on background/reference checks).
After acceptance, the company guides you through onboarding to prepare for your first day.
I applied online and got a phone call a week later to do the in person interview. In person I had to visit the store and ask for the manager that contacted me.
It was 10-15 minutes. Went pretty easy. They asked about me random questions and then told me about the job. The interviewer was nice and told me not to worry and that it is just general things.
The interview was quick and easy. They asked basic sales-related questions and just wanted to make sure you would be pleasant and helpful. No in-depth shoe knowledge is necessary. Not for you if you want to be a laid back sales person.
