Interview
I applied online through the company's website. Their questionnaire was quite long because it included a section of situational questions. It took about 2 weeks for them to get back to me and schedule an interview time. It was a group interview. There were 4 of us and our prospective future boss conducted the interview. Two days later she called me with a job offer. I asked for 24 hours to consider, and ended up accepting. Best first job ever!

Interview
The interview was more like a conversation - they wanted to make sure I was crafty, personable, and had the work ethic that would best benefit my store and the company. They do focus on how you present yourself, so you need to make sure that you are using good verbal and non-verbal communication skills. At Michaels, they focus on excellent customer service - so during the interview process, they want to make sure you can interact with the customers accordingly!
