I applied in-person. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Talbots (Durham, NC) in Sep 2011
Interview
I saw their opening posted within the Mall's online career portal. I picked up an application and turned it in the next day to the stores manager. They called me the next day to schedule an interview time. The interview was 1on1 with the hiring manager. only about 30 mins. we first went over my career background ( customer service based) and then she went over the stores need. after going over what positions were available I decided to take the sales support role due to only wanting a PT position as this would ensure I'm not held to the same sales goals as the sales associates are. my references were checked the next day, I received a call offering me the position that same day.
i had total of three rounds. first was through over phone. second one in person to know more about experience and last to discuss resposibilities and details. everything was directly with the store manager.
