I don't even remember when I joined. I should look that up some time.
Yes! Makes it so much easier to post that way.
So many other sites die at this time.

That's great to hear. Your never-ending quest for art, haha
Is there a certain number of art you want to hit or is it literally just a never-ending quest?

Never ending. I don't collect art just to say I have this many, or to try to get art from everyone who can pick up a pencil, or anything. I get art because I just love art and all of the different styles.

I applied at Nordstrom Rack.
What questions do you think they would ask me?
Help me out so I can at least have some sort of sensible answer if they ask me.

a usual question would be "Why do you want this job?"
and ask about your past experiences on your resume
pro tip: downplay your weaknesses, never lie!
(ex. if you have bad attendance, talk about how you are improving on it.
make sure to always have a few questions for them in case they ask
asking questions show them that you care about the job.
a few good questions would be why they chose the job, about dress code
good tip in case you didn't think of it: don't ask about vacations dates and pay. that's bad yo
i recently had a couple i should remember more questions but i dont so sorry /:
also i have to sleep it's super late where i am. good luck on your interview mew! hopefully you can find a coulple more people to help you prep yourself?
OH!! awesome phone tip: smile when you talk! it changes your tone and makes you sound better and more enthusiastic

Just a few things to add onto what Sushi said (which were great points, btw)
It helps to research your place of employment ahead of time-- no need for the hardcore research, it's just to help you get a bit of information on the company and it would help you think of questions.
I'm not saying to lie, but it's more of turning your weakness into a strength. For example, you tend to take on too many tasks at once, which turns out, helps you time manage and prioritize. IDK it's some BS I'm pulling out of a hat. Remember, you're trying to market yourself to be the employee they would like to have in their company. Like Sushi said, enthusiasm goes a long way.
Generally, the interviewers would do most of the talking: they'll tell you what they're looking for and what the job consists of/what your role and tasks would be. Eventually, they'll ask you if I have any questions.
OH AND CONTINUING what Sushi said... IF your interviewer asks if you are going to be booking any vacation days off, tell them no!
I've yet to come across this traumatic event, but I've heard that employers may ask you to tell them about yourself. I don't know if this is a myth or fact, but I suggest you prep yourself for this. I can't even tell a stranger "something about myself" when asked.
Good luck! (:

They'll take into consideration that it'd be your first job. The only experience they may ask about is your volunteering experience, but talking about your summer job also helps.. Even though it was a few months, it still gave you a job experience.
Job interviews aren't even that bad. Just relax, don't stress and show some enthusiasm. (:
