I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Consolidated Electrical Distributors (Dallas, TX) in Jan 2014
Interview
The interview process was quick and painless, although took about 2 weeks altogether because I was previously employed and it was hard to match schedules. It consisted of an interview and a couple tests. Aptitude, personality, and the Wonderlic test. If they aren't impressed by a first impression they tend to not be as interested. They are privately owned so are big on investing in the right people. If you don't act like you truly want the job they won't try to convince you to change your mind because they want people who want to work, are self driven, and know what they want.
