I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Academy Sports + Outdoors (Manhattan, KS) in Apr 2017
Interview
I applied on line last Wednesday, got called on Thursday morning asking if I had time to answer a few questions. Scheduled a interview on Monday, meet for a panel interview with two Logistics Managers and the Receiving Manager. Very simple questions, the interview lasted 30 minutes and went well. It's only been one day since the interview, praying that my experience as a Material Handler qualifies me for the position I applied for or possibly able to work in another department. Was told that they would contact me by the end of the week if I was getting the position, patiently waiting for the call.

The interview process was done by two seperate people in two parts, but it was pretty straight forward and simple. The first interviewer was a Senior Team Lead who was laid back and easy going, and the 2nd interviewer, who was a Manager was a little more serious and professional.
