I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at JCPenney (Greenville, SC) in Oct 2008
Interview
J.C.Penney was a great place to work. I quit due to unflexible hours because of school. I applied and was hired two days after submitting my application online. The interview went great it was one on one with a manager. The interview took place in her office so I wasn't nervous (even though this was my first job!). I was hired on the spot and extremely excited! The managers are very helpful and training. Overall my experience with J.C.Penney as a company was great!
Easy, got hired in 1 week and was able to start as soon as possible. It was a good process and I liked the people I interviewed with. The culture is off to a positive start.
The interview process begins with an initial screening to review qualifications and experience. Selected candidates then participate in one or more interviews with the hiring team, which may include behavioral and role-specific questions. Final candidates may be asked to complete an assessment or meet with senior stakeholders before a hiring decision is made. Candidates are kept informed throughout the process.
