Pottery Barn takes loss prevention and employee theft very seriously. Loss prevention initiatives are an important part of ensuring that Pottery Barn stays competitive in their market. The hiring manager wants to hire an honest and virtuous employee. Discuss with the interviewer how you would handle a situation surrounding employee theft.

"My reaction to employee theft would differ if I were a retail associate or manager. If I were a manager and caught an employee stealing, I would terminate them immediately. If I were an associate, I would report the incident according to company protocol. I would avoid approaching the employee as I would not want to make it a personal issue."

"I once had a coworker who asked me to help him steal, and it was so uncomfortable! I would never steal for any reason, so it was easy to say no to him. Even though it was hard to go to my manager and know that my coworker would probably be fired, I knew I had to do the right thing. What is the process for those kinds of situations at Pottery Barn?"
