I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Burlington Stores (Southaven, MS) in Oct 2012
Interview
Was contacted by their field recruiter which in turn forwarded my information to the Regional HR Manager. Set Interview date with the entire Regional Team ( Regional-HR-Merchandising-Operations-Vice President ). Overall was great or so I thought. 1 week later I was contacted by the RHRM to meet the Store Manager and Regional Ops Mgr. Went in, walked the location, gave DM notes/pointers. By the end of the interview I literally was given the job..with multiple hints. Even was told that HR "should have my offer package ready". Then didn't hear back from them at all. Called and did a follow up....no call back.

Interview
Before you get to the interview, you have to fill out all of the application. This is a ridiculously heavy process that I believe is used to weed out applicants that aren't serious. There is a section where you have to basically do Algebra homework for about 50 questions. Assessment questions designed to trip you up, phone conversations and outreach by corporate recruiters. Once it is all done, you are set up with a local interview contact depending on what level you are applying for.
