I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Dollar Tree (Citrus Heights, CA) in Nov 2012
Interview
The manager seemed overworked because she had lost her interview question notes, was more interested in taking her lunch break, and was exhausted, noted by multiple comments. Needless to say, the interview took 10 minutes long at best, but in fairness I am not the best interviewee, and was exhausted. I was a little disappointed afterwards, more so because when handing her my application she impressed me with her bubbly attitude and big smile. Still, I had hoped for her call the following day...and still waiting.

Interview

Easy, quick, direct. No nonsense about their needs. Hired immediately after interview, but work culture was good at my location unlike others in my area. It was in-person… at the front of the store, in public viewing, though.
