After applying via the web I was contacted after 2-3 weeks. I was contacted by the HR rep and invited to a panel interview. I was instructed to visit a store and prepare a brief written recommendation of an idea to improve sales in the store. The interview had two stages, both on the same day. First I was interviewed one-on-one by the HR rep. Second by a panel consisting of three managers. The HR interview focused mostly on my resume and background. The panel focused mostly on my recommendation ideas and hypothetical questions involving store issues and how I might deal with them. After the interview I believe I heard back within 1 week or so.

Three interviews, first one from a recruiter and two from market managers of different markets. For field consultant position, an employee must work as a manager of a company store for a year to gain experience
