I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Books-A-Million (Brandon, FL) in Jun 2021
Interview
As long as you have customer service experience and a love and knowledge of books. They were exceptionally swift to start the interview. Most of the questions were book related and if you knew the store.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Q: Are you able to recommend suggestions for others on books?
It was a quick phone call and was very easy, casual conversation. Questions focused on background and interest in working at the store and knowledge of stock management. I also went in person to discuss further.
Know about books. Don't wear jeans. Store has closed so you probably won't get hired here now. Expect to be asked about sales skills and customer service skills and literacy skills.
