Interviewed Apr 2010 (took 2 days)
Called in to talk to a supervisor, was interviewed over personality and other personal traits, why you should be hired. They give you a small math test to do with money and the change a person receives. Second interview is more detailed about why they should hire you, they make sure you have the correct clothing as well as the ability to sign people up for credit cards.

They call to arrange a quick interview with a deparment manager, if you pass this, you then get another interview with the district manager, after that you are then sent to get a drug test.
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details
There is no negotiating a salary, it is fixed. Part of which they hire for is based on the schedule of availability, it is very difficult to work around that afterwards.
Other Details
I applied In-Person and the interview consisted of a 1:1 Interview, a Group/Panel Interview, a Drug Test and a Background Check.

Interviewed Nov 2011 (took 2 days)
Applied in person. Filled out an application and was called in for an interview 2 weeks later. Manager left a message to come in for an interview the next day at 9am. When I got there, there were a few others waiting for an interview as well. However, the person I was asked to meet with didn't even know she was supposed to being giving interviews that day. We waited for her to look over our application and it took about 30 minutes before they were organized only to tell me that I had to come in for another interview in which I had to wait for as well. Overall, the management was unorganized and unstructured. Even though it was for a minimum pay job, the interviewing experience was highly unpleasant. Basic interviewing questions, very few behavioral or situational questions.

Reason for Declining
Didn't seem to be a pleasant place to work and after the interview, realized it was definitely not worth the drive.
Other Details
I applied In-Person and the interview consisted of a 1:1 Interview.

Interviewed Oct 2011 in Renton, WA (took a day)
I was interviewed at the front counter, right in front of everyone. My interview was not placed in a professional environment. And the management was completely fake towards your face.

Interviewed Aug 2011 in Palo Alto, CA (took 1 week)
Walk in application, HR calls and schedule the first round. long wait, then a dept. manager comes to interview, basic questions about who you are and what you want to do, no experience necessary. what he or she told you that day is completely irrelevant to what job you get in the end though. then he or she will tell you whether you will come to another interview with the store manager, again, long wait. it seems the management is never punctual, yet they require you to be on time all the time. again, easy interview.

Interviewed Nov 2011 in Anaheim, CA (took a day)
I originally applied for a customer service job, introduced myself to the manager & handed him my application. The manager said that he would be giving my application to the supervisor in computers (why? not sure). About an hour later, I received a call to schedule an interview for the following day. I went in 10 minutes early, & waited by a register. Finally, 40 minutes passed ...still no supervisor! And that's when about 20-30 other applicants showed up!! We were all placed at separate registers, and asked simple questions about ourselves. I was asked to sell a PINK paperclip to the supervisor, which I did & then was given two pieces of paper, one titles INTERVIEW #1 & the second being, INTERVIEW #2. Both sheets contained questions about what my favorite previous job was & why, what I had learned, who my favorite previous boss was & why, what my boss & co-workers would say about my work ethic, words that describe me, how I feel about criticism, gaps between employment, why I want to work at Fry's & what I feel I could offer. Filled the sheets out & was asked to walk around the store for 20 minutes... came back & was told to wait outside an office for a 3rd interview. By that time, there was MAYBE 5 of us left. 3rd interview was short & sweet... she basically shook my hand, told me that I would be working full time doing merchandising (possibly sales), & sent me to take a drug test. VERY SIMPLE. This was a VERY impersonal interviewing process, make sure you're wearing a white top, black dress pants, comfy dress shoes ( you may be standing for HOURS while they interview) & a huge smile....don't be nervous, it's really not so bad!

Interviewed Sep 2011 in Burbank, CA (took 1 week)
I walked into the store filled out an application and spoke directly with the manager. (If you just fill it out, I don't think you will ever be called in for an interview) We arranged for my interview a couple days later. The interview process was very easy. I was interviewed by two supervisors/managers and then the store manager. All three acted extremely unprofessional, making the interview process very easy. I went for my drug test...then they called and said I start tomorrow. The first week is 40 hours of training.

Interviewed Aug 2011 in San Diego, CA (took a day)
Just a quick very informal 1:1 Session where I was asked several computer hardware related questions. Make as if a customer wanted to build a computer for a certain ammount and for the purpose of gaming. What I would recommend.
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details
There was none. It was straight from the 1:1 with questions about yourself, and finally being told to fill out some background check paper work and the position I would have. During the questions phase they did ask if my schedule was flexible. This would be the time to talk about hours. That's it. No talk of what the pay would be.
