Extensive but easy. Spoke on my previous experience on big outlet stores, my management style, asked for the teams current opportunities and how I could contribute to improving their performance. I expressed what I was looking for from this position, and had done my research on the company to have an idea of how they would benefit me.

Met with a "hiring manager" for about an hour. Friendly, kid was very young, and not really able to understand what he was looking for - he had a sheet of pre-typed questions. The next day I got a call from a Regional Manager, had an hour long phone conversation which was friendly and very open with two way conversation and not a "grilling session". A couple of days later I met with the hiring manager and Regional Manager in person at a coffee place for about another half-hour. About a week later got a call from the Regional with the offer, see negotiation below, got a second call a day later with final offer and accepted. Never met my store manager till a day before our job fair.
