Applied in person directly to the store manager. Due to having worked at the Finishline next door, he offered me an interview on the spot. Just like any job interview, if you show interest, knowledge for the company, and drive to be a good salesperson, its unlikely you won't get offered a position. had to take a drug test and background check before i was offered the position. started working roughly a week after my application was submitted online. Application submission is based off of a personality questionnaire after the application is submitted. the key to "passing" this questionnaire is answering the questions consistently. if you answer one question saying you are a driven employee, answer all of them in the same way (This insight was given to me by the store manager who has worked at footlocker for 30+ years).
