I had been an Associate and Head Cashier at another location before moving to Austin, Texas. I stopped in to talk to a manager to see if they had any openings for a Head Cashier position at the Austin store. An Assistant Manager gave me an application and I applied in store. I was called a few days later by the Store Manager to see if I could come in for an interview. When I came in for the interview I was told that there was also an Assistant Manager position open and she would be interviewing me for both. I was asked some typical questions about retail (loss prevention, customer service, etc.) and about management (Have you ever had to deal with an unruly customer in your store? Name a time when you lead a group to victory). They were fairly simple questions for the most part. The store manager didn't call for a week or so, so I called the store. She said that she liked me but she was waiting for a background check to make an offer and it might be another week... Then two more weeks went by. I guess the background check and the paperwork took forever to get approved by corporate. (I found out in my management role that this happens a lot there.) Finally I got a call from the Regional Manager with an offer. There was no real room for negotiation. I asked, and he said that what he was paying me was far better than many ASM's make. So I took the offer.

The interview process was great I really enjoyed the managers and their style of handling situations. Great place, love the fashion, happy to be there with others. Will come back to shop always love forever 21 hope im theyre favorite
