I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Bed Bath & Beyond (Jenkintown, PA) in Aug 2014
Interview
They just read my application and asked me about my experiences at my past jobs and what I was looking for. I spoke to the manager on duty, then a key holder, then to the store manager (who was the only one that really mattered because he was going to hire me).
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Availability was their main concern. The more open you are, the more likely they'll look at you for a follow-up. Smiling and being energetic/polite helps because the job is almost all customer interaction and the managers will be looking at that.
