I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Staples (Southbury, CT) in Aug 2015
Interview
Filled out the application online and did an ethical reasoning test. Once I passed that, I got a call the next day to come in for an interview the following morning. I go in with a suit on and woo the hell out of them. Just basic cookie cutter questions and then they went right to availability and when I could come in for training. Easy as pie. I originally applied to be the lowest paying cashier, but once they saw I had some meat upstairs, they said I'd be moved to Copy Center and I agreed on the condition it was more money. I came in the next day for work and I got 'promoted' again to Tech Sales. Two years later and I'm finally giving my feed back.
Interview was super quick and casual. Mostly answering questions about my strengths and availability. It was about a 15-20 minute interview. The interviewer was transparent about how many other applicants there were.
Interview process was fairly easy consisting of just one interview with the manager. Questions were the typical / generic kind. Got a call back in decent time frame. Wouldn't sweat the process.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Can you talk a bit more about your customer service experience?
Contacted the company about a cashiering job. Was put in touch with the right person after a reasonable amount of time. Things seemed to go as expected. Nothing tricky about it.
