I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at PetSmart (Houston, TX)
Interview
It took almost a month to get all interviews done. They basically just went over my resume with me and asked questions. Asked a few other questions related to how I work with teams, availability, etc.
Straightforward interview by regional hiring/management during company job fair. Asked about experience with job duties and animals. Was joined by store manager later in interview. Set potential training and procedural expectations well. Online personality/work style quiz took much longer than anticipated, but was straightforward.

Question 1
What canine training models or methodology have you used in the past?
Super quick and easy. I really enjoyed talking with them, the questions made sense for the job. Once I started talking it was natural. The position was perfect for me.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at PetSmart (Arden, NC) in Dec 2019
Interview
Small office space with fairly standard questions. The pros and cons of /a/ job were presented to me. These turned out to not be the pros and cons of the job I was actually hired to do. I would be very specific about what exactly it is you will be spending your time doing, and make sure you know who you will be working for. It’s very much so a big corporation, but the experience seems to come down to your individual store leader. I had to interview with someone else, then wait two weeks, then re-apply, then get hired incorrectly, then never be able to get in touch with someone, then a month and a half later I started.
