I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at JoS. A. Bank (Toledo, OH) in Jun 2009
Interview
I applied online and received an immediate response the next day to have a 1-on-1 interview. I should have told the store manager at the time what I wanted to accept for hourly pay, however, I did not. I had a feeling that the company would realize my 5+ years experience of retail and give me a decent wage to live on, however they did not. I asked for growth and stability of hours, however, that becomes rare. It took 2 weeks for a background check and an approval with the District manager.

I applied in-person. The process took 6 days. I interviewed at JoS. A. Bank (Dothan, AL) in Jun 2014
Interview
It was very informal and personally unprofessional. I was actually "interviewed" on the sales floor while the store manager was working with a customer.The company objective is all about making money while paying the least amount they can in the process. The merger with Mens Warehouse hasnt made things drastically better either, marginal at best.
