I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at JCPenney (Beavercreek, OH) in Oct 2013
Interview
Quick, group interview, easy questions, pretty basic questions, nothing out of the ordinary or difficult. We were with our group for maybe 10 of the questions and the rest were solo. The whole process between interview and call back was about 2 weeks. Told i was hired and would start immediately and i did within a week. It started out as 1 shift per week and picked up on black Friday.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
None really, all the questions were very basic such as what do you bring that others cant, are you reliable, whats your work history, can you talk to people, can you get along with anybody, are you friendly, when can you start, why were you fired or quit prior jobs
