My Interview at Tilly’s

Heyyy sooo I recently got hired to work at Tilly’s! I love this store and I’m super excited to have this job : )

The interview process was pretty interesting. I found out about the job first by going into the store and asking the manager if he was hiring, which he was! I actually filled out the application the day of, went back to the store, and then did a mini one-on-one interview.

I came back the following Monday for a second interview, this time with a group of other potential employees. An employee asked us general questions about why we love Tilly’s, what activities we are involved in, and why we would be a good fit to work at Tilly’s. It was very relaxed and my nerves went away pretty quickly.

Then, it got really fun and kinda intense. The employee asked us to walk around the store and pick out an outfit that a girl would wear to a party. When we had all our items, we then had to pretend to sell the products we picked out! After the simulation, the employee asked me and two other people to stay at the store because something was wrong with our resumes. I was scared when she said that haha because I didn’t want that to effect my chances. Anywaysss it turns out that nothing was wrong with our resumes and instead, we were chosen to be hired!

Overall, it was a pretty fun and quirky process and I’m sooo glad I get to work at Tilly’s. They have super cute clothes and everyone there is so sweet! If you have any specific questions about the process or just any retail questions in general, feel free to ask!

Coffee & Matcha Run

Hey everyone!

Today I was with my friend who I have known since PRESCHOOL (and through softball) and we decided to go check out Communal Coffee (Coffee + Flowers) and Holy Matcha. Both places are pretty well known because of their aesthetics and we thought it would be fun to go and see if it was all really worth the hype. Turns out, it was!

The coffee tasted actually really good and the menu was very unique so it was fun to  order something I’d never even heard of before.

Next, we went to Holy Matcha because we had some time on our hands to explore the area (both shops are located on the same street!).

It was such a great day and I’ll miss roaming around SD when I move to SLO! I guess I’ll have to find some more coffee & tea places there…

Anyways, let me know if you have any  suggestions on new places to try out!
