I applied through other source. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at JCPenney (Fairfax, VA) in Feb 2013
Interview
Initial interview was on a Saturday morning. I arrived on time but nobody was there to greet me. A few minutes later the person I was supposed to meet came out and escorted me into where the offices are. She was very professional and pleasant. The company had set interview questions she was to ask. She first completed the 'regular' questions that I guess any potential employee would be asked but then moved onto questions for managers since she thought I might be a candidate for that. It turns out that with the exception of one question...they were the same. All of the questions were "Describe a time when..." which is when you have to give real examples of actual situations you've dealt with. I have a follow up interview which I haven't yet gone to so I don't yet know if I will get an offer or not.
