I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Swimco (Burnaby, BC) in Jan 2015
Interview
Very easy, had a friend who referred me and pretty much got me the job based on my previous retail experience. I met with the store manager and she told me about the position and what I would be doing.
Applied online and was contacted for an in person interview with a store manager and then asked to come in for a second interview with the district manager. The process was quite quick. Each interview covered the same things felt a little redundant but other than that it was a pretty positive experience.
