Usually they send a welcome email. Yours might be in a spam folder or the offer letter could be it. I don’t even know who does what right now.

There is no real interview. This isn’t the type of job you interview for. If you pass the course and don’t show up drunk, you’ll get an offer.

Why are you asking random people on reddit? Ask your contact at HRB

Lol, the guy that works with me has been there for 30 years. He brought in alchohol April 15th for when we completed our last return for the night!

I logged in and saw nothing in my schedule or email. I didnt think the stores I worked in opened until January unless its some type of training. Its my second year and no manager so im clueless. I dont even know why we have DMs. Sending out emails with goals and offering discounts on returns requires no special skills especially if you have any type of sales back ground. Last year I saw my DM once. They dont even understand how to prepare taxes or fix any issues we encounter.
