Prepare for a Great Job Interview With These Questions and Answers

Recommended Answer:
Dress as you will when you work at your particular duties in the organization. Let the interviewer (s) see you as fitting in. Of course,use your Coach bag but only if it works with the rest of your outfit, otherwise it will appear staged.

Expect group-based questions to be bounced off of you and the other candidates. DO NOT show any negative attitude towards other answers! If anything, be bigger than that and approve of answers you strongly find agreeable. Questions should focus on your character values---honesty, generosity, desire to help the customer find what she wants and your wish to learn all you can about the lines of merchandise so you can become expert.

Good luck!

Job Interview Techniques

• For this type of job, I would wear something dressy, but I don't think you need to wear an actual suit; you don't want to look stuffy! Take your bag, definitely, and be prepared to answer, not only standard interview questions. This is a designer store; they're most likely looking for someone with a good sense of style, but is also personable. If you're interviewing for a sales job, they'll be looking for someone who can move the merchandise.


• Sounds like you're going to be interviewed as a group with other people all at once. I would go with a business/casual outfit. Be prepared to answer questions like how you plan to be an asset to the company, future ambitions with the company etc....


• Before you go in for an interview head by the store and take note of what kind of uniforms the people who currently work there are wearing. If I remember right, the people working in Coach stores wear a rather formal uniform of black pants, with a black blazer and a colored blouse. But that might just be the stores by my place. You should go to the one you might be hired at and take a look. Then, whatever the employees there are wearing, you should dress one level above. Unless they are wearing full on business attire. If all else fails a suit will always look good unless you're interviewing for a job as a cashier at a grocery store or something equally informal. Go ahead and take your Coach bag, it couldn't hurt your chances.
  
  You might be going to a group interview with other candidates so they can get a feel for who you are as a person and what type of position would best suit you. Then if there's interest there's a possibility that they will either interview you 1 on 1 or if you're going for a higher level position in the store you may be interviewed by up to 3 people.
  
  A 1 on 1 interview for a retail storefront position shouldn't be too difficult. They'll expect the usual from a retail employee, ie. professional attitude, handling stress during peak hours, customer relations skills, sales skills, fast-paced environment handling abilities and so on. They may also give you examples of a situation and require you to describe the action you took or would take, then the result of said action.
  
  I would say you should expect the normal run of the mill questions for working retail. They'll probably try to interview you all and get a feel for how you and the other candidates handle difficult situations in a retail environment such as what you'd do if you encounter a problematic customer, how you deal with stress during high-traffic shopping hours, and how you will deal with customer and coworker issues, as well as how you would approach a customer to sell an item in the store.
