I applied online. I was called to schedule an interview in person. I went to a store and interviewed with the store manager. The questions were basic interview questions asked when applying for retail positions. I gave my availability and a little bit about my work history. In about two days I received an email with New Hire information. The next day I got the call with the offer. I had to complete the new hire "packet" on line. I went for a drug screen. I was called when my background check and drug screen came back and was scheduled to start the next day.
