I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at DICK'S Sporting Goods (Raleigh, NC) in Nov 2011
Interview
I applied and the next day I got called in for an interview. The woman I interviewed with was very friendly and sweet and asked the basic interview questions like tell me a little about yourself?, your availability?, why do you want to work at this store? After the interview I answered a few questions on the computer about my moral character. After I finished she printed out the results and I passed. She knew I drove about 2 hours for the drive so instead of asking me to come back another day for the 2nd interview she asked the general manager if I could go ahead and interview with him that day as well. I was really unprepared for this, but I went in there and he really grilled me HARD!! I was so nervous, but apparently I did a great job because the next day they called to offer me the job. There's a catch.....I applied and interviewed for apparel associate, but they both agreed on me being a cashier since I seemed to be such a people person!! I told them I needed time to think about that because a cashier at Dick's during the holidays sounds like a complete nightmare!! I finally called them back to decline the offer. Of course I had interviews at 4 other Dick's in the area and since I already took the moral character interview at the first store the other stores had to call them to get the results, so I guess they bad mouthed me since I declined the original job offer. I never heard back from any of the other Dick's so I just left it alone! Not fair but oh well.....
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at DICK'S Sporting Goods (Ann Arbor, MI) in Sep 2011
Interview
This was a job fair for a new store opening. I have significant retail experience. The add stated that they were hiring for full and part-time positions. They only were hiring temporary part time positions with no guarantee of hiring. This was a gross misreprensation of their ad. The interviewer had no answer as to why they only were hiring temporary people.
