I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Sur La Table (Fresno, CA)
Interview
Went out to lunch with the DM, and was asked a series of questions about my job focus. He prodded for certain answers, but was very vague about much of the process. After lunch he met with our store manager and they hired me on the spot.

The process was very unusual, as I was interviewed on the sales floor, while the MGR was assisting customers. It was rather stressful. The questions were read off of a clipboard.

Question 1
The MGR asked me to sell her something off of the sales floor. Not having knowledge of the item made this challenging.
