I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Payless ShoeSource (West Hattiesburg, MS) in Mar 2015
Interview
All I did was submit a application online, and waited for a phone call. I got a call asking me to come in for a interview, I came in the next day. Also in the interview, they are going to take you out on the floor and ask you to role-play as if they are the customer, looking for a specific pair of shoes. You need to ask, What are you shopping for today? Any specific color? What shoe style are you wanting to get? What's the occasion? This will help you get a better idea of what she's looking for.

The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Payless ShoeSource (New York, NY)
Interview
Applied online, called within 2-3 days to follow up. I did receive a call back to schedule an interview with the store manager, after that I had to schedule and interview with the District manager (Store manager called me back after the interview to schedule it) fairly long process for such a basic position. Store manager asked me retail related questions such as "tell me about a difficult customer" "sale me this shoe and a accessory". Interview with the District Manager was more of a conversation, we talked about store goal such as sales and what my job really is as a sales associate.

Interview
The interview was very to the point, your typical interview for a retail position. Asking about experience, whether youre good at sales, good with people. The manager seemed really nice, was very outgoing and friendly.
