I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at PetSmart (San Diego, CA) in Jun 2010
Interview
I obtained the interview through a job fair at my college and the interview was scheduled for a few days later on campus. They just asked very typical job interview questions and I answered them well I thought, but I never got a call back. It seems like a great place to work if you like pets, but it is retail and you won't necessarily get that 9-5 schedule you might desire.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at PetSmart (Tucson, AZ) in Nov 2017
Interview
Applied online and got one interview. The manager was very professional and asked me about my prior experience with dogs. She also asked me about my dog. We went over my work history.
