I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Staples (Silver Spring, MD)
Interview
Applied online and received a call about 2 weeks later to set up an interview with one of the mangers. I made sure to arrive 15 mins early to my interview just incase. When I got there and asked for the manager they told me to wait. Turns out the manger hadnt even come in yet. I had to wait about 45 mins for him to arrive, and he wasn't even drssed properly. And I mean shirt unbuttoned and untucked, pants slouching, etc. His employees looked better than him. Anyway, my interview finally took place after another 15 mins o waiting for him to "prepare." asked why I wanted to work there, any job experience, if I knew any info about staples, etc. Interview didn't feel right, and I wasn't called back whatever. I don't think i'd wanna work under a manager like that.

Question 1
None. Basic interview questions. I was only asked about two questions before the interview trailed off to nothing relevant to the job. Felt like he didn't even know what he was doing.
Twelve rounds with a required dance number and an audience-provided question and answer period. Spelling test provided at the end of the process to final round candidates if successful at interview.
Easy , straightforward , conversational . Didn’t ask any questions out of the ordinary. Asked about cashier process and systems, methodology etc. Met with a few ppl at different levels
