Application
I applied in-person. I interviewed at JCPenney (Downey, CA) in Jul 2019
Interview
Pretty straightforward, they were clear on what company objectives were. They went over questions I had regarding the work that I would have to be dealing with as well as accommodating my work hours with my school hours.
Was asked what my availability was like. Went through a series of scenarios and had to give my answer and why I chose that answer. After that I had to wait for half an hour for a second interview with another manager.
