I applied for a business office associate position at the location closest to me. Some weeks later, another location across the city called me and invited me to apply there, but for a sales associate position. I expressed hesitance at this, not really thinking I was qualified or cut out to be a car salesman. She assured me by retail background qualified me, and wanted to interview me. I applied to that location online, and heard from them in a couple of days.
I went in for my interview and was pretty thrown by all the information they want access to. Entire social security reported wages for your life to present, complete background check, drivers history, credit check, check you against retail return abuse databases, and on and on.
You sign all that stuff then you start a computer pre-interview that repeatedly asks how many drugs you've done and how much stuff you've stolen. Repeatedly.
Then the first interview guy comes and reviews your answers with you. Then the second interview guy comes in and does what I recognize as an actual interview.
I complete that and am promised an answer, by the weekend, and that I would not be left hanging without a call.
They never call me and almost two weeks later I get a rejection letter from them.
