Question GUESS interview

Hey ladies!
As you know, I have an interview at GUESS tomorrow and I'm wondering what I should know, do and look out for during my interview?
Supportive and constructive advice is appreciated.

Thanks!

SIDE NOTE: I'm utterly nervous at the moment, so bare with me on this =)

Re: GUESS interview

don't ever say i don't know to a question, thats wat someone told me i think it was my counsellor hahha. don't be nervous. give eye contact. that is a must. have a firm hand shake. don't look up or down or roll your eyes i guess ahha and just stay calm and relax and try to have fun as well be urself. and try to make small talk, so they think that you are easy going and will fit in well.

Re: GUESS interview

also, at the end of the interview, the interviewer may ask if you have any questions for them. they like it when you ask a couple things, ie. why do you like working at __________?

Re: GUESS interview

i had an interview at marciano couple years ago. after a personal interview you go to the back and do a telephone machine interview... i dont remember what they asked.. i remember questions about stealing, ex. if you saw another employee stole 5bux would you rat them out.. blah blah blah..simular stuff like that...i didn't accept the job there b/c i got hired somewhere else the i more prefer working at.

tip for the machine interview: use common sense, give the answer they want to hear

Re: GUESS interview

Wow, this advice is overwhelming. Thanks, again!

The thing that I'm worried about is my age, I'm 3 months distant between the preferred of 18.

How should this be taken into consideration?

I really want this

Re: GUESS interview

^ I don't think that age is too much of an issue. I mean, someone who is 16 is as capable as doing something as someone who is 18. What they want is your skills/experience. They want someone who is not lazy and has a great personality. A good attitude goes a long way! =)

Re: GUESS interview

Is it for the Robson one?

GUESS interviews are pretty relaxing. Present yourself as mature and professional as possible is my only device. Although officially, you HAVE to be 18 (it's not "preferred") according to the , but it shouldn't be a deciding factor.
