I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Dollar General in Mar 2011
Interview
Received Call and Email from recruiter
Complete Online Assessment - Some parts of assessment were a bit challenging but it was not timed (although I imagine time you took was factored in). The assessment consisted of a personality type test and basic kills/problem solving.
Had phone interview with recruiter day following assessment test.
Received call from DM same day and was schedule later that week.
Met with the DM and RM the same week.
I then was offered a position which I accepted -- took less than week.
All three interviews -- the people seem different than you typical company.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What do you think you will like least about this job.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Dollar General in Apr 2009
Interview
I was referred by a former fellow worker and it was very simple. They called, I came in and filled out application met with mgmt, phone interview the next week and was hirred a few days later. Overall a very easy process. They could have pushed things together a little closer, but I know they have a lot of people to talk too.
