I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Nordstrom (Portland, OR) in Sept 2019
Interview
The interview was pretty straight forward. I had to mock sell a very odd item of clothing and describe my previous sales experience. Not too difficult. Overall, the experience was painless and quite simple.
So easy, I went to a job fair and was hired on the spot. They need people in the kids department, that's the easiest section to get into. They just ask about your personality and who you are.
Was inside Barton creek mall, hiring manager was prompt and clear with questions ranging from how I would handle difficult customers, to my personal experiences that could apply to the job.
