Application
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at PetSmart (Guelph, ON) in Sept 2017
Interview
Informal conversational review with the store manager and supervisor. Questions were mainly about past experiences and interests in the position that you are interviewing for. Generally an enjoyable and chill process.
After applying for about six months for any position available(I just wanted to work with animals) I got a call back. I feel that I got this call due to talking a lot with the area trainer at my previous job. After about a week of trying to get a hold of her and a specific manager I gave. Right as I gave up I got a call from the operations manager asking me if I wanted to come in for an interview. Went in two days later then the following day I went in for an interview with the store manager. Later that afternoon I got a call asking if I would be willing to do a drug test. Passed that and got hired! :D

Interview
Very informal. I got pulled into a closet of a manager "office" and had a pretty informal conversation with the manager. They were really nice guys, but the interview didn't feel professional enough.
