I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Sears in Mar 2017
Interview
First was a quick 30 minute interview there was minimal structure in the initial interview after, I received an offer immediately after the interview. Orientation was next before starting a few days later.
Straight forward, they had me fill out questions on a computer. It then was a group interview, it would have been nice to have a one on one so it was a bit awkward.
