I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at TJ Maxx (Cleveland, TN) in Nov 2011
Interview
I was called about having an interview and I went to the store around 3:30, they were having many back to back interviews so i had to wait for a little while. Then I met with one of the three managers who basically went over my application with me and asked a few questions about that. Then I waited to see the head manager while he was finishing with another applicant, I then went and talked to him and there wasn't much to say, he just asked a few more questions and then told me I was hired.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What was the most difficult situation you've been in?
Easy, quick, simple, they asked why do you want to work here, tell me about your interests and what makes you think you are a good fit for this position.
Very straight forward. Asked about previous experience, strengths and weaknesses. Explained the job requirements and tasks. Asked all the regular questions. It was very smooth, and it didn't feel very timid.
Very easy, they just ask u ur availabilty not too hard and not something you would need to prepare for or anything. I also wore jeans too and they did not mind
