I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at TJ Maxx (Chicago, IL) in Nov 2014
Interview
At first, the standard job interview questions were asked. Why do you want the job, what can you contribute to the team and the company, etc... After those were out of the way, job-specific questions were asked, such as what is integrity, if your friend came into the store and you saw him stewing, would you stop them, is it ok to interact with associates below you outside of work, etc... It was very laid back, but serious.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
If your best friend came into the store and you witnessed them stealing, how would you handle it?
Easy behavior questions. why do you want to work here? strengths? weaknesses? where do you see yourself in 5 years? interviewer was relaxed, cool manager. Not a complicated interview process at all.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at TJ Maxx (Edinburg, TX) in Oct 2017

I was being hired in a group interview process with 20 other people at which we were split into 2 different groups. We were brought in during the seasonal retail hiring season, and many people were interviewing for temporary positions while they were only hiring 2 new permanent workers.

I was asked several questions, basically to get to know you as a person and your personality, and to get a feel of how you would react in certain situations. Discussed how I would handle different scenarios with customers and co-workers.
