I applied in-person. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Michaels (Charlotte, NC) in May 2014
Interview
Very short and simple questions. The interviewer was the store manager, we met in a classroom. She had a single sheet of paper and appeared to check boxes. I believe the interview was about 10 minutes. I arrived early and brought 3 copies of my resume along.

Easy. I walked in the store to ask if they had any job openings, and the manager interviewed me on the spot, and offered me a job. I submitted an application afterwards.
