Target Interview

3- How do you work with people who have different perspectives than your own? Describe a situation, your actions, and the outcome.

I have worked with people who have different perspectives from my own by taking others' perspective and experience into account when working with people of any background. I always make sure to communicate with others' effectively and thoroughly, and treat others fairly. This way, a solution that is both creative and effective can be found to situations.

5- Imagine that you are on the sales floor and you see a guest who appears to need assistance. How do you proceed?

If I were working on the sales floor and saw a guest who needs assistance, I would first help them by asking them "What do you need help with today?" and then I would listen to their response and find a solution to their situation.

1- Tell us why you are interested in the position and describe your relevant knowledge and experiences.

Some of my relevant skills are customer service, cash-handling, and sales. I gained experience when working in parking services, as well as working as a Seasonal Sales Associate. I also have experience completing tasks in a timely manner from working as a Parking Enforcement Officer, and as a Facilities Maintenance Team Member. I am interested in this position because I would like to translate my skills for serving guests in the best way possible, and always putting customers' needs first.

2- Describe how you learn and adjust when an experience does not turn out as expected. Describe a situation, your actions, and the outcome.

When a situation doesn't turn out as expected, I make sure to find the best solution to the problem anyways. One situation was when working as a sales associate, a customer tried to return an item that came up in the system as being currently in the inventory. I contacted the Loss Prevention team, and worked to make sure the customer was alerted by the manager in charge that they could not return the item.

4- Describe how you have worked with another person to achieve a goal. Describe a situation, your actions, and the outcome.

When working in parking services, I worked with my supervisor to mail out parking passes to students before the semester began. I was able to help the team print proper labels for the parking pass envelopes to be mailed out, address all envelopes in a timely manner, and mail all passes to students so they received them to their mail box or student housing address.
