I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at T-Mobile in Sept 2012
Interview
Saw an job opportunity listing on Career Builder and applied for a hiring event they had going on. It was a basic application process, personal info, followed by a retail assessment test. I was reached out to about a week from the date i applied. Interview was very relaxed. I interviewed with two managers, one of whom hired me for her store. Asked usual questions; "why should we hire you?" "Why T-mobile?" "What makes you a good fit?"and a few questions about standard retail situations and how I handled them.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The most unexpected question I was asked was where I get my phone news from
They didn't specify what they wanted, claiming a flexible schedule and really emphasizing hiring women, and the whole point is not to check all the boxes. I only asked for Sundays off, and they said they specifically needed me for those days. However, there was no indication in the application that they would specify this; otherwise, I wouldn't have applied. So, needless to say, I didn't get the job because I wasn't willing to compromise. I mean, if none of that matters to you, then I'm sure you can get the job.

They have a packet of 6-8 behavioral and situational questions
Script style (they cannot help with questions, only repeat the question if asked)
Panel style with 3 managers
They really care about your ability to meet sales goals and what your plan is to meet those goals
