I applied in-person. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at T-Mobile (Port Huron, MI) in Sept 2014
Interview
Called last minute for a same day interview, asked me to be there within an hour. Interview was casual in back room standing up. The interview was very fast only a couple questions asked and then I was asked to come back the next day for two hours for a working interview to make sure I had the personality to be good at being a sales associate. After that I was told I would have a schedule to come and work.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Given your experience and character qualities, why do you think you would be good for the position at MetroPCS?
They didn't specify what they wanted, claiming a flexible schedule and really emphasizing hiring women, and the whole point is not to check all the boxes. I only asked for Sundays off, and they said they specifically needed me for those days. However, there was no indication in the application that they would specify this; otherwise, I wouldn't have applied. So, needless to say, I didn't get the job because I wasn't willing to compromise. I mean, if none of that matters to you, then I'm sure you can get the job.

They have a packet of 6-8 behavioral and situational questions
Script style (they cannot help with questions, only repeat the question if asked)
Panel style with 3 managers
They really care about your ability to meet sales goals and what your plan is to meet those goals
