The hiring process at Foot Locker is quite simple. It consists of an online application and either a one-on-one interview with a hiring manager or, in some locations, a group interview. The online application is easy to complete and asks basic questions about work experience, availability, and personal information.
Most applicants report being contacted roughly one to two weeks after submitting an application to attend an interview. The interview consists of standard interview questions, and an applicant can expect to be asked things such as:
Why do you want to work for Foot Locker?
Tell me about yourself.
What is your definition of customer service?"
What do you do if we are out of a popular pair of sneakers?
Cashier and sales associate applicants are sometimes hired the same day as the interview. Otherwise, applicants may receive hiring notice a few days later.
Managerial positions with Foot Locker such as shift leader, assistant manager, and store manager job titles will require candidates to undergo several rounds of interviews. Most interview questions inquire about leadership abilities and store operations skills.
In the more senior managerial interviews, the interviewer will want managerial candidates to refer to relevant work experience. Managers are also expected to be good salespeople, and Foot Locker may ask managerial applicants to role-play and try to sell an item in the store.
