This was a good first job. I would highly recommend it for someone looking for their first job. It was hard work but I learned a lot. Worked with a great team.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Turtle Wax (Rolling Meadows, IL) in Jul 2011
Interview
I got an easy way in since I knew someone who knew the owner of the location. He asked me about my availability, which you need to be almost fully available for this job because they don't have a set staff/hours. Then I had an interview, which was basic. Just be open with your hours. Then I had a second interview. The interviews are short enough.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Turtle Wax (Willowbrook, IL) in Nov 2009
Interview
Took several tries to get scheduled for interview, after HR left voice mail that I was being offered an interview. Had to fill out application form upon arrival at the office, then met with the HR Coordinator, who basically reviewed my resume and asked clarifying questions. Then met with HR Director, who had a list of about 30 questions - some behavioral, some psychological. HR Director was not specific about timing of next steps. I told HR Director I would follow up in a week. Waited 10 days, then called HR Director, who informed me that top two candidates had been scheduled for second round interviews. Before I had an opportunity to ask for feedback about my interview, the call was concluded.
