I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at DSW (New York, NY) in May 2012
Interview
I applied online at DSW.com back in December, they emailed me for an interview; however, the email said if you could not make it, email them and they will set you up with a different date. I did that because the interview was on the Sabbath, but I was never emailed back until April 30th. The interview was on May 9th, and it consisted of a group interview first. If they wanted to continue the process with you, they selected you and you went on for a 1 on 1 interview. The only thing I did not like was that I felt like at my 1:1 interview, the interviewer wasn't paying much attention to me. She kept saying uh huh, and then she told me I got the job and to fill out an availability sheet. Maybe they had already decided I got the job, and that is why. I'm just waiting now on my call to start training (they have to finish the criminal background check first).The interview process took very long because a lot of people came out for the interview, but the interview process itself was good; just be natural. If you have what they're looking for, they'll probably hire you.

Interview
Easy. Waited for a manager in the front took me to the back on for store and had the interview in a little room off to the side. Quick process called when I got the job.
The interview process was simple and straight to the point. Easy application, with straightforward questions. Interview very soon after application. Heard back within a day or two about the position.

Question 1
Tell me about yourself and why you want to work here
Easy, they just want someone that can be on the floor to keep it clean. No experience needed. If you can be open with your availability you will get an offer. The best part is getting a discount.
