I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Sears in Aug 2013
Interview
Interview depends on the manager, got asked about the brands that the department carried, why I wanted to work in the fashion department, what experience that I had that was relevant. There were couple of behavioural questions, but mostly situational questions and company knowledge questions
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me what you know about the brands that Sears carries.
Easy interview, they asked basic soft skill questions and put an emphasis on selling credit cards. Originally only a seasonal position, but I did well enough that they hired me full time. There is a high turn over rate though.
Interview was extremely easy. Looking for someone for the holidays for a temporary position but was hired on due to high credit card sales. Interviewer asked basic situational questions and some behavioral questions as well.
Was asked to arrive at a given time. There were 10+ other people scheduled for that time. I was 2nd in line, so I stayed, otherwise I wouldn't have wasted my time.
