I applied in-person. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Pier 1 Imports (La Crosse, WI) in Sept 2010
Interview
You have to apply in-store so I came in and applied. After a couple days I received a phone call and they asked me to come in for an interview. I sat down with the store manager for about an hour and talked about my previous retail experience. I felt pretty good about the interview and he said he gets a lot applicants but can only hire 1-2 and doesn't interview everyone. He asked some situational questions but really just wanted to know how I would fit in there, selling furniture.
They asked 5 basic questions then asked me to speak about myself and my previous position. They asked where I saw myself in 5, 10 then 15 years. After I responded, they gave me their insight

The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Pier 1 Imports (Spring Valley, NY) in Oct 2010
Interview
I went into Pier 1 and filled out an application. They also gave me the job description to read over to make sure this was something I was interested in persuing. What I liked about this process is that they allowed you to come in and talk to a person, instead of an online/computer automated system
