Interviewed May 2012 (took 3 weeks)
I was contacted my Sears to arrange a phone interview. The day of the interview, I waited by the phone at the designated time. I received no call. I sent an email to the person who had arranged the phone interview and she apologized for the mixup. She re-scheduled the interview for 2 days later. On the date and time of the 2nd date, I again waited by the phone at the designated time. She never called. I sent an e mail again asking if there was some confusion and perhaps a need for a 3rd date. I got no response.
Other Details
I Applied Online and the interview consisted of a Phone Interview.

the interview is standard. Phone and two on one on interviews is the norm. Be professional and be prepared to give examples of results you have driven in previous jobs. Background and drug test will be necessarry. Be patient it could take a month.
The hiring manager doesn't complete all the onboarding so be patient he is probably working with a recruiter that he does not see everyday.

Interviewed Aug 2010 (took a day)
Was contacted via email regarding position applied for requesting I take a series of skills tests/personality tests. After doing so I was contacted by a recruiter wanting to schedule a time to do a phone interview. He asked if he could call on Saturday, however I was not going to be available so we scheduled it on a Sunday! After giving some background on the interview process he asked standard interview questions for a management position. He also informed me that they did not actually have a position available in the area, but are always looking, but that there was an assistant position and asked if i would be interested. I said that I would be. He told me that the process takes about 4 weeks to hear anything back. I got an email about a month and a half later saying that the position had been filled.
