I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at JCPenney in Apr 2010
Interview
Pretty standard questions, the interviewers were very nice. The process consisted of 3 interviews the first with a human resource woman, next with the manager of the department I was applying for, and finally with the store's general manager. When I arrived for my first interview I asked one of the employees at the registers in front and was led to the break room where I was asked to wait because some one else was already being interviewed.

Question 1
What was the last time you were awarded an honor at school or work?
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.
