Interview
I was called a day or two after I applied online and had an interview with a lady about a week later. She didn't ask me any typical interview questions just talked to me about school and my other job and then she told me she wanted the next lady up to interview me and when she came in she told me the first interviewer really liked me and so after talking for about 3 minutes she told me she liked me as well and I was hired pending my background check.

Interview
There was a group and one on one interview! There was an activity in which you were given 4 options and had to choose the best one for attracting the most customers to the store. Then you had to present your idea to the group and the group had to unanimously agree on the best one. Afterwards we had our one on one interviews.

Interview
Really innovative large group interview. They set up little ice breakers, then a game/contest type of thing where we tried to create a sales pitch and convince everybody to pick a way to bring in the most customers/sales.
A lot of the girls there were really fake and picked the most stupid unrealistic things, yet they were favored by the group. Totally annoying and awkward hiring process. Great for the extrovert narcissistic type people.

Interview
I applied online and received a call from the hiring manager 2 hours later. She asked me to come in for an interview the following day. The interview was more like a conversation and really relaxed. I heard of this company having group interviews but mine was a one on one with the hiring manager.
