Interviewed Jul 2011 (took a day)
They called me in for an interview about a week later of submitting the application. There were 2 1:1 interview. First, with a team leader and the second with a team leader in which you applied for the position. They were friendly and amicable. They pride themselves on team work and dependability. They asked questions about a situation where you over achieved or showed signs of leadership.

Interviewed Jun 2011 in Tempe, AZ (took a day)
Filled out the application online and received a call from HR a few weeks later. They have you come in and you take a basic skills test on their computers near Customer Services. Then they take you back to their offices and you sit in one of the Team Leaders offices. First the lower supervisor for the position comes in and interviews you, behavioral questions. Then the boss of the group I was applying for, the Executive Team Lead, came in and gave me similar questions. Then if they like your interview a member of HR will go in and offer you a job.

Interviewed Aug 2011 in Phoenix, AZ (took a day)
Corporate HR person call exactly at the time we mutually agreed upon. She was very cordial and easy to talk to. She asked basic interview questions. However, she never asked me to tell her about myself, which I thought was odd and really wanted to do (as an initial sell). She explained what I could expect for the rest of the application process and the timeline. Unfortunately, I recieved an e-mail several days later indicating they were considering other candidates and I was not one of them.
