Interview
I filled in an application online and received a call a week later. The lady asked basic questions like when can you start, is there any restrictions, and then asked if I could come in for an interview two days later. I did. The guy interviewing me was really nice. It didn't even feel like a interview. He said he has to talk it over with his manager and it could take up to a day to a month. I knew then I didn't get the job.Never heard back from them.

Interview
I got a phone call to ask some simple question like availability for working and flexibility. Then we scheduled an interview with one of the store managers. The call lasted about 5-10 minutes. I arrived at the interview 30 minutes early, so I walked around the store until it was time for the interview. I spent over an hour walking around the stores talking to employees, some who I had known. The interviewer was late by more than 40 minutes. When we started interviewing, he seemed distant and uninterested in what I had to say. It seemed as though they had already found a person for the job and had to get the interview over with. Admittingly I had very few experience in retail but his blanent lack of concern was unnecessary.
