I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Staples (Santa Clarita, CA)
Interview
Very simple questions about previous retail experience. I don't remember them asking more than five questions; it was a pretty casual interview and I was told I'd hear back by the next week. Never heard back, but might've been due to poor organization on their part. Who knows. It was easy though.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Staples (Las Cruces, NM) in Sep 2023
Interview
Applied on Aug 30 and completed assesments. Got emails and text messages confirming an onsite interview for Sep 12, at 3pm. Showed up and was told there were no more interviews and the position was filled. Went to my car and checked my email and at 3:05pm (5 mins after sheduled interview) was an automated email cancelation from HireVue
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Staples (Huntington Beach, CA) in Jun 2018
Interview
Was responded to within 2 weeks of applying. Interview was fine but my schedule did not work with theirs due to school. Very laid back and relaxed there, but they were hiring for back to school season so it might not have reflected that in the interview.
