Today I had an interview with Old Navy. It went pretty well and the manager said he would send someone to show me around the store to see if I'll be comfortable working there in a few days and then take me to his supervisor who will see if I'm ok for the job and then I'll be hired.
So I have a few questions that I didn't ask (I didn't want to be too upfront too quickly):
1. Some of my friends tell me that Old Navy has a reputation for treating their employees badly. Is this true?
2. So I asked the manager about the dress code and he told me that everything that is "Old Navy-ish" meaning jeans or anything you could buy at Old Navy (not neccesarily -from- Old Navy) and is appropriate (no mid-riffs et cetera) goes. So for the walk-through, my friends told me I should wear nice jeans and a dressier top instead of formal pants or such.
3. In British Columbia, the minimum wage for the first 500 hours that someone works is $6.00 (which is what I wrote on my application form) and then $8.00 after. Some stores start paying $8.00 immediately. Does anyone know what the starting pay for Sales Associates are at Old Navy?
4. He asked me if I wanted to work the floor or the cashier. I told him anywhere where I could interact with people. I thought that would mean the floor but my friends say that you interact more at the cashier and the floor is just cleaning up and stuff. But I don't really think the cashier is for me, I would rather be active and doing stuff. In your opinion, which one is less stressful/easier/more interactive during the Christmas season, the floor or the cashier?
5. How are the customers at Old Navy? Some people tell me that everyone there is rude and messy but some say it really varies. What do you think?
I don't do this a lot but this is a really tedious question so anyone who answers will be rated a |5| :) Thanks for your help. (link)

1. Im not sure if Old Navy treats there imployes bad but if the do just quit and find another job or better yet find a back up job while you are working at old navy.
2. Just buy old navy clothes and wear them.
3.i have no clue!
4. it would probly be easier to work the floor during the holiday season because all the people at the register will be impatient and yelling and screaming at you.
5.I think it depends on who the person is.
Hope I helped!
