I applied online. I interviewed at DICK'S Sporting Goods (Niles, IL) in Nov 2014
Interview
You go through 2 interviews one with a general manager and then the second with store manager. After the first interview you take a online questionnaire. The questionnaire is just situations and if you agree or disagree that it is right or wrong. It's fairly easy, if you have retail experience you will do fine. Just make sure to sit right and make eye contact they love that.

It was quick and easy. They asked basic questions about yourself and availability. Nothing too in-depth and no questions that required more than a simple, couple-word answer. Overall, the process felt straightforward, efficient, and low-pressure, making it easy to complete without much preparation or stress.
