Am I being led on, or is it now normal to have 3 rounds of interviews for retail jobs? I've always had one and then been told if I made it or not. I'm currently being emailed about coming in for a 3rd round via phone call after two rounds in person.I don't know what else they need to know.

I wouldn't say its normal to have that many interviews for a retail position. The most I have been made aware of is two. One with the interviewer and one with a manager. It really depends on what type of retail this is. Is it mainstream stores, boutiques? I personally think if a company has to interview you more than once they do not have an adequate interviewer process in place- I would message in, in regards to this prolonging, any questions they may have, could have been answered during the first meeting. I hope you get your answer.

I've had no more than two rounds and that was for a management job. I don't see a need for three rounds but hopefully that was the last round. I would just be cautiously optimistic.

For a retail role, three rounds does feel excessive unless it is higher level. Sometimes it is a sign of indecision rather than thoroughness. It is fair to question what they still need to learn about you after two in person interviews.

Three rounds for retail is unusual, but it’s becoming more common with corporate involvement or leadership roles. You’re probably a strong contender, they wouldn’t invest that much time if you weren’t on their shortlist.

I’ve done four rounds for a job I ended up not getting, but not for retail. That seems excessive

Hi Folks, I'm currently in search of a mentor. I'm a 28y/o MSc grad and starting a Junior Funding Consultant role (writing grant applications for startups) as I'm tired of holding out for an entry level role in ESG/Sustainability - I keep getting rejections despite completing a very wide ranging internship at a renewable energy company. Last year I received an offer at Deloitte Belgium but due to Brexit & VISA delays, we couldn't continue. Now I'm unsure of my career progression & need guidance.

I’m currently working with a senior level HR candidate. This individual has a doctorate in business with a focus in HR, her SPHR, Federal, and private sector experience at the singer level, and has a fabulous personality. I’m curious is anyone else having difficulties play some candidates like this? At this point I’m starting to think it’s racial or her sex based of the lack of interest in this candidate. Any thoughts?

Theory: Trump is losing his mind because he’s essentially been forced to become celibate. He obviously loves chasing women of all kinds, but now he can’t. Four more years? He’ll go totally insane.

How do I keep my watch from falling down my wrist when I walk? Is it normal for it to be able to slide a little?

An additional link off (already a half one) makes it indent my wrist, so running out of options that way. First time with a metal bracelet
