I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at RadioShack (Westminster, CA) in May 2009
Interview
Initially, I applied online without much of a thought - after all, I was just sort of spaghetti-throwing out job applications and hoping one stuck - but after about two weeks I got an e-mail from a RadioShack SM asking if I was interested in an interview. I showed up (looking nice!) to the store in question, where I met the SM and DM who conducted the actual interview.
It was pleasant enough. They explained the basics of the job, and asked a few basic questions like "Describe an interaction with an unpleasant customer", asked me about my experience with electronics, etc.
After the interview was completed, they offered me the position and I accepted. The next step is a background check/SSN check, and due to some snafus I'm still waiting on my hiring packet.

Describe your experience with electronics, if any.
The interview was fairly easy. Manager was very down to earth and was able to explain the role in detail. In addition, he has been in his role for 5 years.

Easy. Basic questions. Asked about interest in sales and tech. What I thought about commission. If I was familiar with the latest cell phone technology. What my favorite animal was.
