I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Academy Sports + Outdoors (Birmingham, AL) in Sept 2012
Interview
Filled out the online application. Got a call from the HR guy a couple days later with basic questions like availability, still looking for a job, do you have means of transport etc. Set up a day to come in and meet with a manager. Business casual is fine for this interview. Asked a couple of basic customer service related questions and why I thought I would be good for the job. Got told the salary and asked if I wanted the job and accepted.
