I applied online. I interviewed at Sports Basement
Interview
I applied online and a week later, I got a phone call for a 1 on 1 interview. They asked me about to talk about myself, what I like about sports basement or other sporting stores like it, asked about what I did at my previous jobs. They also gave me some scenarios such as what would I do if a customer acted angry or aggressive towards me and how I would handle the floor if I was with a customer and the fitting rooms and check out needed help. Those are just a few questions I remembered. Nothing too difficult, just straight forward. I was also interviewing for the fitness department, so the questions were tailored towards that area.
A few hours after, I received a call telling me to come in and fill out paper work!

Very positive, mostly behavior questions related to previous experiences and why you want to work at an outdoor retailer. Some questions about community. All managers were very nice and the interview went smoothly.

I applied in-person. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Sports Basement in Sept 2015
Interview
Pretty simple. Applied in-person and received a call within a few days. Went back to meet the department manager and answered a few question and then met with the store manager and answered a few more. Offered me the job on the spot and showed me around the store. Paper work took a few more days to go through.
