HR talked to me first, then the head of the department. After that, there was a drug test. It was pretty straightforward. I also had to get some paperwork notarized on my own time because the notary there had crazy hours.

It was in person, and they asked me about my past jobs and what I think about customer service. They also asked about stuff I like doing when I'm not working. Pretty much, it all comes down to how the hiring manager is feeling that day.
