I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Finish Line (West Dundee, IL) in Jul 2013
Interview
Pretty laid back. They don't expect you to come dressed up but I definitely would recommend. Don't be nervous for it is only a retail job. Try to energetic because that is basically the biggest thing they look for. They want people who are up beat and able to socialize with anyone.
