Was hired as the result of a mass job fair to find seasonal hires for Black Friday and Christmas season; originally wanted a stock/merchandising position but ended up as a sales associate. I had been calling the store for about two weeks and was continuously told to call back later when the hiring manager was available; an associate who answered the phone one day finally let me know about an upcoming job fair that I could come to instead. Arrived, had to confirm that I had already applied online, and sat around for 3 to 4 hours before someone spoke with me. They then sent me on my way and said someone would call me the next day. After not hearing from them I called them back and got an interview with the head of stocking and merchandising. A day or two later the store called me and said I could move on to the next phase of the application process, and thus I interviewed with the general manager, who admitted he did not see me as a stocking associate. I said I had some experience with computers and was then hired as a computer sales associate. Wasn't brought in for my first paid day (orientation) until three weeks later after being told I'd only have to wait two weeks.
