I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Kmart in Aug 2011
Interview
Applied online and never heard anything back. Applied again and called the store a week later and requested to speak with someone in HR to inquire and was told that they would soon be reviewing applications and if interested they would call me. Received a call the following week for an interview, if you can call it that. Was asked only a few situational questions and basically hired right then, with no formal job offer verbally extended. They conducted a background check which took 2 days to complete, no reference check, and no drug test was required.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Name a time that you had a problem that appeared to be impossible to solve, were you able to solve it, and how?
It was a typical interview with a manager at the store. It was not too hard and not too easy. I would consider working here later on but not right now because of health issues.
Straight forward applied interviewed chit got a call came in to an inperson inter view manager and another associate. Asked passed jobs I was in school asked about working weekends and over time how I dealt with stressful situations s
simple. behavioral questions asking how you'd handle situations, a lot of questions about handling conflict and ethics and things along those lines. it was simple and easy to navigate,don't need much practice for most of them.
