I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at JCPenney (Moline, IL) in Jul 2012
Interview
I applied online and was called with in twenty four hours. The interview was set up for the very next day, and lasted only thirty minutes. Very basic questions, what you would expect. It was strange to have as many interviewers as I had (four) sitting in on the same interview. I was offered the job on the spot and started two weeks later.
Easy, got hired in 1 week and was able to start as soon as possible. It was a good process and I liked the people I interviewed with. The culture is off to a positive start.
The interview process begins with an initial screening to review qualifications and experience. Selected candidates then participate in one or more interviews with the hiring team, which may include behavioral and role-specific questions. Final candidates may be asked to complete an assessment or meet with senior stakeholders before a hiring decision is made. Candidates are kept informed throughout the process.
