Interviewed Jul 2010 (took 2 days)
I had a phone interview first which was really just a confirmation that I was still interested in working there. I was asked a few simple questions like my name, email, etc… The interview itself was one on one with a few questions like why do you want to work here and very short. I ended up accepting the job.

Interviewed Jun 2008 in Toronto, ON (Canada) (took 2 weeks)
First there was a phone interview where they just asked basic questions about previous work experience and then asked why you wanted to work at Zellers. If that went well they asked you to come in for another interview, that one started off with a math/skills test which they give you about 10 minutes to finish. It has basic math questions (multiplication/division). Then was the actual interview which lasted 20 minutes, questions about past work, experience in different situations and things of the like. Dressing nicely was important.

Interviewed Jun 2009 in Calgary, AB (Canada) (took a day)
I was requested for an interview with the company, and being that HBC is like 339 years old, a company only 47 years doesn't seem in fact that OLD, and they didn't like that I called it a relatively new company (H&M), which is fairly new to Canada, having come here in the last 8 years.
Interview Questions
Reason for Declining
I chose to decline because they wanted open availabilty for little to offer, with an unacceptably low wage.
Other Details
The interview consisted of a Phone Interview.

Interviewed Jun 2007 (took a day)
There was a good deal of misrepresentation, I applied for a POS (point of sale) maintenance position and wasn't told until I got into the interview that the job they had in mind was setting up planograms. The questions asked were rather standard with a focus on any previous retail experience and how one would service a customer.
