I interviewed with the store manager, and we spoke about what the job entailed. He presented me with a job offer that day, and we negotiated a suitable rate.

Interviewed Aug 2010 in Tustin, CA (took 5 days)
I met with the Distric Manager first. She asked me for my responsibilities at my current job. What type of new skills I acquired at that position. What type of skillshave I developed and implemented? What type of motivations we use to increment productivity in employees. What types of barriers have I faced and how I overcome those types of barriers. Budgeting challenges and employees request, hiring process, organizing database, and training process.

Interviewed Oct 2008 (took a day)
There were two face to face interviews one with the Customer Service Manager and one with the Store Manager. Both interviews were straightforward.
If you are able to be happy and excited while talking and show a general interest in the company and tell them how much you love their store; the whole process is a cake walk.

Interviewed Jun 2009 (took 2 days)
The interview process was pretty simple. It was a good interview with about 5 other girls. My advice is to speak up and stand out. Don't say anything stupid and don't give short answers. For example, I remember two of the girl said the were shy and didn't like to speak to people. Idiots. You are applying for a job in retail. What a stupid thing to say. Every time she asked either one a question, they responded with yes or no answers w/o elaborating. Of course, they weren't hired. Practice how you would try to sell an angel's gift card. THIS is important b/c they get a lot of their money from those cards.

Interviewed Jun 2010 (took 2 weeks)
I walked into the store looking for a job, and they had a table set up with applications. I was told to fill one out then return it to the customer service desk and be ready for an interview. I filled it out and returned it. I was told that at that time their was an interview taking place, so they would keep in touch. They did not seem to care. I did not get a call, so about a week later i went into the store. I talked with a manager who told me that they wouldnt be looking at applications for another month. It seemed shady to me because they were holding inteviews just a week ago.
