I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Gap (Huntsville, AL) in Oct 2014
Interview
I put in my application online on Friday night 10/24/2014. I got a call the next day from the manager and asked me if I could come in for an interview on Wednesday 10/29/2014. I went to the interview, and it was another interviewee and I with the manager. She asked us both to tell her about ourselves, such as where we're from, where we've worked, etc. After that, she gave us a quick tour of the store, and asked us if we had any questions. The whole interview lasted maybe 20 minutes. She said she would call us the next day to let us know. She didn't call on Thursday, so I called on Friday, and I had just missed her. I followed up with her on Saturday, and she said she would call me on Monday or Tuesday because they were very busy over the weekend. I got a call today, Tuesday 11/04/2014, saying that I had received the job and to come in on Friday 11/07/2014 to go ahead and start filling out paperwork. I am starting as a seasonal employee, but there is a possibility to stay on after the season depending on how I do.
