The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Great Clips (Port Orange, FL)
Interview
I applied online and got a call back within a half hour. I had an interview set up for the following day. I walked in, manager was up in front and knew me by my name immediately. I got to hear about all the great benefits Great Clips had to offer . No color services either, which I was excited about. I really felt like the manager listened to me and was very upfront about what were the expectations.
I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Great Clips
Interview
My interview was very relaxed and comfortable. As I had worked for the company before It made the interviewing process easier. She was very knowledgeable about the company and what was offered
I applied in-person. I interviewed at Great Clips (Rochester, NY) in Jul 2018
Interview
I applied online, called a day later. Then it was days later when I finally got a call from the manager. She asked me to come fill out an application in person. When I did that, she scheduled an interview for the next week. I arrived early with my one model. They were supposed to do my technical interview first. My model could only be there for a short time, but was told before my interview my technical one would be first. But that was not what happened. The franchise owner came out to greet me, said he was going to do the talk interview first. I was not happy with this. Then he sat in his chair in the small back room for a half hour or a bit more. And made my model wait while I knew he had to get back to his job. The franchise owner didn’t seem to care what imposition he was putting my model and me in.
The technical was ok. But knew I was quite rusty and was a bit nervous. Felt even more unease especially when the franchise owner made my model wait so long and made me try to get him out as fast as I could. This was not a good situation when under this type of pressure. It was not of good character that he was made to wait so long. Well I guess the customer isn’t that important after all. Future customer? Not likely.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
No questions , the franchise owner asked me no questions really. The manager did the same thing. No questions about why I like doing hair, just talked about scheduling, etc and kept looking at her phone. I had to ask her, so do you you have any questions for me? All I heard was crickets..... Weirdest interview ever. But easy. She acted as if I was going to be hired, showing me her schedule for the non manager stylists. This was after the technical.
