I applied in-person. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Great Clips (Mankato, MN) in May 2011
Interview
I met with the salon manager, at which time she asked me a handful of questions about my ability to serve the customer, and be a positive addition to the team. After the initial interview, we set up a technical where I was asked to bring in a model for a male/female haircut. I did both, she observed and combed through each upon completion.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Think about the last haircut you did. What did you do before you began the cut? How did you know the customer received the haircut he/she wanted?
It was super relaxed for the most part. They mostly asked questions about my background and previous customer experience jobs. How I handled certain situations, why or why not I'd be a good fit. Standard interview stuff,

We appreciate you sharing the interview process! Thank you for the feedback.
They did an in person interview and a technical interview, it wasn't too hard of an interview process. The technical is intimidating at first but its not too bad and the manager was friendly.

Interview
I got an immediate call after applying online. A recruiter took me out for coffee and a quick chat. They offer a lot training so they focus more on advertising what your job could be like if you accept the job offer.
