I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at GameStop (Huntsville, AL) in May 2012
Interview
Generally they only promote within the company, you'll already have a working relationship with the district manager. The Regional isn't usually involved with the hiring process.
If you attend a job fair, expect all the usual questions, like why Gamestop and sell me this pen.
Generally it's one interview and done. Sometimes two.
Dress nice, and don't be a complete spaz. They don't necessarily care about game knowledge so much as previous experience and proven success.
