      Children's Play Area Interview

      28 Jun 2017
      Anonymous employee
      Santa Ana, CA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at IKEA (Santa Ana, CA) in Jun 2017

      Interview

      Right after a few minutes of finishing up the application, I received a phone interview (basic questions such as, why do you want to work there, name a time you successfully worked individually & in a team, 3 characteristic of a great employee, what type of environment are you comfortable working in). After completing the phone interview, I was scheduled for an in person interview. The manager I interviewed with made me feel really comfortable and also asked pretty basic question. The in person interview was quick , less than 30 minute. About a week later I was called in for a job offer, there they performed a swab drug test. I'll be starting my orientation in a few weeks.
