Interviewed Jul 2010 in Brooklyn, NY (took 1 week)
I already had experience working at GNC in the same location, so the interview just consisted of asking how I used to handle problems compared to how I would handle them now. Additionally, how my sales were and what can I do for the store. The hiring process when I first applied took only about 2 days. Paperwork was easier then and my manager was a SSM (senior store manager) so he had more experience in the process. Recently, coming back, the hiring process took 1 week and then after working for 3 weeks, I finally got paid. The manager at the time was inexperienced, especially with paper work.
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details
If you applied for a GNC in a mall, be aware that you have to work until whatever time the mall closes and that can become annoying. Other GNCs close a little earlier and the employees have time to go enjoy life after work. However, if you work nights in the mall, but the time the mall closes, your "hanging out" options are limited. On the other hand, if it's in a popular mall, sales are usually higher and it'll be easier to make sales and make your commission.
Other Details
I got the interview through an Employee Referral and the interview consisted of a Phone Interview and a 1:1 Interview.

Interviewed Mar 2009 (took a day)
My initial interview was in the phone and I told him some of the things I already knew about vitamins and herbs. He then asked me to meet him for a one on one interview. He asked me about my previous retail experience. He told me this would be a challenge and I told him I was ready for it.

Interviewed Mar 2008 in Seattle, WA (took 1 week)
Upper management reviews resume online. They will do a phone interview first, then determine if they want to do a 1:1 interview. At 1:1 interview, normally just you and the store manager. It normally takes up to a week to hear a call back.

I had a phone interview for my 1st interview. The following week, I interviewed with the Regional Sales Director. Less than 30 minutes after my interview with him, I received a call offering me the position. No background check, no reference check, no drug test. Less than a week later, I am running the store!
