The whole thing took about 4 weeks. I first interviewed with the District Manager. Then, three days later, I had a follow-up interview with a DM from a different district. About a week after that, I had my final interview with the Regional Manager. They gave me an offer two days after that.

Behavioral Technical Presentation
I sent my CV online for a job out of state. After 2-3 weeks, I got an email to set up a phone interview. The first phone interview with the District Manager (DM) lasted an hour. She seemed really keen to hire for the store because it had been without a manager for months and even gave me advice on speaking with her boss, the Regional Manager (RM). The interview with the RM was about 20-30 minutes and went okay; he was a bit unsure about hiring me since I hadn't worked in retail for a long time. I had another hour-long phone interview with the DM. We tried to do a Skype call, but it didn't work, so she asked me to post a picture on social media afterward, which I did. I got the job offer two days later. The whole thing took about 4-6 weeks.
