I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Dollar General (Bessemer, AL) in Apr 2013
Interview
Completed application online. Received call 2 weeks later for interview. Very easy interview simple questions. Made to feel very comfortable. Had follow up interview that was more like a tour. Then had a physical and drug screen. Was hired about 10 days later. After being hired there was a two week introduction period. Trainers were good for the most part with the exception of one being more interested in himself and telling you how great he was.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Dollar General in Feb 2014
Interview
Took the assessment testing on a Monday and received a call on Friday to schedule an interview with HR on Monday. Interview went well. She said she would get in touch with the DM to give him my information for the next interview step. She explained if I was hired the training would last 90 days and then after I had completed that I would sit down with the DM and together we would decide if I was ready for my own store. If we felt that I was ready then I would get the next available store in my area.
She explained the pay range and would I accept that if offered. Explained that I would be working anywhere between 45-60 hours per week and was I okay with that. I have had my own business in the past so I am familiar with having to work long hours.
It has been almost a week since I talked with HR rep and still haven't heard from the DM regarding an interview.
