I applied online. I interviewed at AT&T (Houston, TX) in Nov 2014
Interview
Took about a week, received a call from H.R. to schedule interview with recruiter. Arrived 15 min early. Interview lasted about 30 min. Basically went over resume & discussed training, hours, locations. Then recruiter told me he would call me back to schedule interview with hiring manager. Have not heard back since. I called back H.R. & was told my application was on hold, but that they are always hiring. Not really sure what to think.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Was asked if hours & locations would be an issue as well as traveling for training.
It is a basic customer service and teamwork questions. Asks you to teach them how to do something you're passionate about. Nothing crazy or unexpected. Laid back but professional, answered all my questions as well.

Interview
Interview itself is pretty easy. The two times I've interviewed with them as varied based on the manager, but they're pretty forthright with everything they're telling you and the expectations of the job.
After the initial interview, the store will likely assess your product knowledge. They may ask you about various cell phone models, features, or accessories, and how you would explain them to customers. This is to evaluate your ability to understand and communicate technical information.
