First, we had a phone screen with some general questions. Then, there was a meeting with the District Manager which included behavior-based questions, questions about my experience, and a store walkthrough. After that, I got a conditional offer pending a background check.

I walked in and asked for an application. I set up a phone interview with the District Manager, but they never called. Two weeks later, I got a call from a local store manager who did a phone interview with me. She told me she would call back to set up a phone interview with the District Manager, who never called the first time. I never got a call back from her. Another week later, the lady who originally gave me the application called asking me to come in and fill out hiring paperwork if I was still interested.
