Questions about my experience and familiarity with the gear, as well as retail experience. It went for about 15 minutes, then there was a follow up interview with the store manager.
I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Eastern Mountain Sports
Interview
I came into the store and filled out an application. I spoke with the store manager and explained why I wanted to work there and asked if I could come in for an interview. I was given a date for the following week for an interview. I arrived for the interview and was only asked a few simple questions. The conversation quickly turned to how much the pay would be and when I could start.

Question 1
How would help a customer prepare for a hiking trip?
Interview was straightforward and non intimidating. Questions were relevant, and interviewer was friendly. Not much else to say. Word counts are annoying because they make you reach a certain number of words.
