I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Kmart (Lansing, IL) in May 2012
Interview
I applied online and was instructed to select a day for an interview. I scheduled it for a Thursday. Went in on Thursday and was told the Human Resource lady did not work on Thursday. I called her the next day and she told me to come in Saturday. The interview was really basic. She asked me for my availability and I told her open. During the interview, it was two girls in the next room getting trained so I felt they were hiring. After the interview, she scheduled me an interview with the store manager and told me to come with my SS card and an ID. When I came for the second interview the store manager had to leave, so the human resource manager just told me she will offer me the position. She sent me for a drug test and told me she will call when my background test results were back
Interview questions [3]
Question 1
Tell me about a time you were in a difficult situation and how did you solve it
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.
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.
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
