Begins with a preliminary phone interview so that the employer can get to know you, then it moves on to an in person interview with the store lead, then the store manager.

Interview
They ask you a bunch of "Name a time you were put in a leadership position and a problem you faced and how you overcame it" Just think on highschool or sports or make something up. As long as you're well spoken and can put together some coherent sentences you're good.

Interview
AftThere were 3 interviews - on the phone, with store manager, and general manager. The phone interview just a screening with one of their office leads. This was just to get a feel for what kind of person you are and know about your past experience. I got an interview scheduled for the next day and it was pretty simple. Discussed work history again and did some behavioral type questions. They informed whether or not they were going to push you to the third interview, and I was pushed along. When I told the GM that I wanted to work in the computer department he was hesitant because he had standards on who he wanted in that department - he wanted people who knew their stuff. I, however, convinced him I would be good for the role and he decided to hire me. He sent me information for where to take the drug test and I would come back in for further paperwork pending the results. A week or so past and I hadn't heard anything from them. I called them and I was told they totally forgot about me. They told me to come in to sign paperwork to complete the process. Definitely be persistent if you're wanting a job here. I had to also call in multiple times to see if they got my application.
