      Assistant General Manager Interview

      26 Sept 2017
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Books-A-Million

      Interview

      I applied for a position as an AGM. The position stated that it was available on the BAM website. During the interview I was told that only bookseller positions were available. Would've been helpful to know that prior to my interview instead of wasting my time. Got an offer as a bookseller, but that was absolutely not what I applied for.
