Applying is a little impersonal all done over the computer at which time your application will be dropped into a metaphorical bucket of thousands of applications, then again this is the common process for most companies currently. Contacting the company after application submission is key. Once you have their attention though the rest is cake assuming you have a good work history and clean background check. You simply come in talk to the manager of the store when they call and if schedules allow and compensation is acceptable the job is more or less yours.
