I applied through other source. I interviewed at JYSK (Surrey, BC)
Interview
Fairly informal, met with the store manager first at the Surrey location, the store was busy, so the interview started a bit later than agreed upon, but not a big deal, after a 15-20 minute interview, we concluded. A few days later, I met with the DM again at the Surrey location and was hired a few days after that.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Before you are fully trained, what is the one thing that you will be able to contribute to the store immediately.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at JYSK (North Greece, NY) in Oct 2024
Interview
Standard video interview with four typical questions. You should record your answers and there was a five day deadline to submit them. Not stressful but very impersonal. I would not recommend the experience.
I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at JYSK (Brampton, ON) in Sept 2019
Interview
Worst 1-on-1 interview I've been to, and I've traveled and worked in 3 countries. My career aspirations were asked and when I answered that I saw myself working behind the scenes analysing data and dealing with vendors, I felt like I was punished for being honest and revealing my aspirations as the hiring manager didn't want me to move up and stay in the ASM position for 3 years. This is retail and people come and go all the time. You can't hold someone in a position. At least I'm not one of those candidates who will lie and say anything to get the job and jump out at the first better opportunity I get. My aspirations were clearly stated in the résumé, so if that was an issue, why waste both of our time?
