I applied through other source. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at TJ Maxx (Marion, IN) in Jun 2014
Interview
The interview was really laid back. I waited at the front of the store and the manager came to get me from the front. I interviewed with the store manager first, and then met with an assistant manager that same day for some more questions. I think you always talk to two managers for the interview. It was very casual and easy going... just like a normal conversation. I brought my resume with me and the attire was business casual. We just sat and talked and they asked pretty basic questions. My whole interview process was probably 30 to 45 minutes. Sometimes they let people know right there if they're hiring them, and other times they call... Just depends on how many they're interviewing really.

Question 1
The manager asked me why I wanted to work at TJ Maxx.
Simple basic behavioral, come prepared witg examles of how you gave customer service in previous scenarios even if not from job. Know a little bit about the company and your golden
It was a two parter, one on the phone, and one in person. It was a typical interview with the standard "why do you want to work here" and then what they expect from you as a employee.
Very straightforward and simple. It was a phone call with the hiring manager. Super easy peasy, nothing to stress about. Just be confident and kind. It took all of maybe half an hour, maybe less.
