I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Big 5 Sporting Goods (Redlands, CA) in Sep 2017
Interview
The interview process was very easy. I went into a small room in the back with the manager of the store I was interviewing at, (The store I was applying to was not built yet but they were hiring early), we then sat down and he asked me some questions about my schooling, (I had no work experience), and he asked some questions about certain things on my application like about certain sports that I said I do, and other things like why I want to work there, and for the most part of the interview he explained that I would be working at the new store and that they are hiring early to get the training done, etc. They basically are just looking for someone who has no problem speaking out, and presenting a friendly attitude. He said afterwords that he would call me on Friday, and so he did.
I applied online. I interviewed at Big 5 Sporting Goods (Corvallis, OR)
Interview
The interview was very easy. Sat in the office with one hiring manager and she asked a couple questions about me, mostly just small talk. Most of the interview was her telling me what the job would be like.

Talk about yourself and your past experiences. Around 15 minutes with the manager. Will be contacted about a week after interview with a phone call discussing next time you can come in.
It was average. About thirty minutes long. They were cordial. They spoke about the responsibilities of a sales associate and the hours expected for the position they were looking for.
