The typical way a hiring works is that an advertisement is placed in the Sunday local newspaper, giving a specific date, time, and location in which applications will be taken. Following directions is an important part of the job; going to the wrong location or showing up at the wrong time will prevent applicants of a chance of getting the position. Usually there are hundreds of applicants for each position. The District Manager will hand out applications, and ask if you have read the job description and can complete the job tasks. No resumes are accepted, but it is best to bring one to aid in completing the application. Also, bring your reference information. If you are selected for an interview, you will meet with the District Manager. You will be asked a series of questions about your employment history, and will be watched before, during and after the interview to see if you will be a good fit. Slouching, not smiling, and lack of energy are not good. Talkative, energetic people get the job. You will also be asked questions that start with "What would you do if..." ("you saw an employee stealing," "an employee refused to do something you asked them to do."). They are looking for honesty, customer service and management skills, and energy level. At the first interview, you will also be told of the job requirements, pay rate, and benefits. They will be looking to see whether you really want the job. If the first interview goes well, a second interview is held with the Director of Operations. This interview is much the same as the first. Some questions about your background, and easy questions about what you would do in certain situations. Again, they are looking for honesty, customer service and management skills, and energy level. Usually the job offer is made over the phone if the interviews go well. There is no negotiation about pay, benefits, or responsibilities.
