I got hired at sportchek awhile back


They will ask

"When was a time that you went above and beyond your required duties as a staff member?

Do you work better as an individual or as a team?

What are you motivated by? (money, success, etc)

Explain a stressful situation you were faced with at work and how you dealt with it.

Hypothetical Situation: You have 2 customers come up to you at the same time and ask you questions, what do you do? How do you prioritize?

How do you deal with rejection? (they want you to push the promos and the 'full experience' i.e. if someone is buying a pair of shoes, suggest socks, insoles, maybe a new pair of running shorts to go with their running shoes, protectant for the shoes, etc)

How would you describe your work ethic?"

That's all I really remember, was summer 2009 I got hired so take it with a grain of salt hah

Just employed at ALDO, I suggest stock coordinator for teens, just need a good work ethic, vague knowledge of number systems and a good memory.
