Yeah I am pretty over retail, It's not a stable industry and my current employer and previous one has toxic people at the top. I'm also not interested in moving up the retail ranks to be an area manager or national or anything like that so there's not much more room for me to grow. The only answer is to move into the larger customer service industry where the majority of skills i have learned are transferrable and see what happens. I agree with you about multiple rounds of interviews. Such a complete waste of everyones time. I also find them to be a bit of a dick move on the part of the employer. It's like they know how inconvenient it will be for you to take more time off. But if you really want the job you will jump through the hoop, then most of the time you don't get it anyway.
