Interview
3 days after I filled out my application online for one store, I got a callback from another store for a interview. First interview was with the Supervisor of the computer department. A second one followed up imminently with the manager. After having a talk with him, he said that he would schedule an interview with the general manager within the next 2 hours. 6 hours later I got a call back from an assistant that my interview would be in the afternoon. The next day, just as I was getting ready for the interview, I got another call that my interview would have to be rescheduled due to a conference call. So I showed up for the interview on time, and it was 45 minutes long, where mostly the GM talked about reaching their sales quota, customer relations, etc. I was also promised a call on the following Thursday, but that call never came, so I called in on Friday morning to find out that 'they didn't had space' for me. After contacting the manager from the 2nd interview, this was exposed as a lie.
It was not too long and was a good process. They asked me about eight questions so that was not bad at all. Just make sure you act professionally and be positive throughout the process is what’s most important of all.

Interview
Applied for the job online, then immediately got an email to do a video interview within 5 days. There is no interviewer, it's just you responding to the questions on the screen as it records you. It gives you a moment to practice if you want. There are 8 questions. You have 10 seconds to read the question, then 2 minutes to respond. At least you can click the button if you want to continue, giving you time to think or take a breather before you answer the next question.

Interview
It was pretty easy with the integration of the video interview. I was able to get it done in about 15 to 20 minutes at the most which I thought was pretty impressive.
