I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Toys "R" Us (Raleigh, NC) in Oct 2014
Interview
Previously, I read about Toys R Us interviews on Glassdoor, and yes it was a group interview. There were 5 interviewees and we had to start by introducing ourselves by giving work background, skill set, etc. Then, we had to do a team building project of building legos. Each group member gave some details about the toy that was made. Next, they wanted us to select a toy from an area and sell it to the group. Be careful to listen to the HR manager or store manager as they will provide some hints you should use in your presentation such as batteries and their rewards program. Finally, they made their selection who they wanted to keep for the one on one interview. They asked me a couple of questions during the one on one and offered me the job on site.

I applied online. I interviewed at Toys "R" Us (Nashua, NH) in Nov 2016
Interview
Interview process was simple and easy going. It was a stress free process that went very fast. This was during the holiday season so that may have contributed to the simple nature of the interview.
I applied online. I interviewed at Toys "R" Us (Henderson, NV) in Sep 2016
Interview
It starts out as a group interview. They tell you to sell an item, and then they tell you to build something with LEGO's. After that is done, the HR privately interviews you.
I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Toys "R" Us (Buckhead, GA) in Nov 2014
Interview
Applied online. It was the standard retail application process, with the multiple choice aptitude test at the end of the application. Got a call to interview in-store about 2 days later. The interview process was unorthodox: Which could be expected from a giant toy store. It was a group interview, and the first thing we had to do was grab a toy that we thought best described our personality. Second, we had to create a commercial for that toy, and act it out. 3rd, we had to partner with someone and make a commercial based on our two toys. Was told I got the job after the interview process was over.

Question 1
Combining my toy with someone elses was pretty challenging, in that you had to try to sell items together that were completely unrelated.
