I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Staples (Grandville, MI) in May 2017
Interview
I applied to work as a Tech Associate at Staples. I was called a week or two later to come in for the interview. I was interviewed by the general manager (GM) from a different store at the moment and she said I was qualified for it. I recieved a call again from Staples for a second interview this time it was the assistant manager (AM) and he said I was also qualified. The third time I was called again to come in and speak to the GM of the store and they did not know I was originally interviewed by the first GM but other than it was simple questions about tech and other miscellaneous things. Got hired the on the third interview. I was told there is usually one interview but I guess three was my lucky number. After getting hired you wait for an email to official get hired.
Straight forward and pretty easy. I applied online and was given a call to come in for an interview. after the interview interview I was offered the position and accepted. the manager interviewing me was reasonable and was able to accommodate my schedule.
