Interviewed Apr 2008 (took 4 weeks)

The interview process consisted of an initial interview that was fairly brief and vague. From there I went to a more personal and in depth interview with a district manager. After that came a panel interview with several district managers and store managers. This interview was much more in depth and had many situational questions. Finally, I received an offer letter listing more of the position benefits and salary.
