      I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Duane Reade (Bronx, NY) in Jan 2016

      Interview

      I went through a 3rd party screening process. This was a group interview setting with 30+ people competing to answer 5 screening questions for multiple companies. we were then paired with job opportunities based on our skills and resumes. I was advanced and interview with a DR District Manager in the same day. I was sent an email offer. The location was unionized so, there was no room for negotiation. I was given an "on-boarding session" date which consisted of multiple new hires all filling out HR paper work together and discussing and questions they had. The orientation is a week long process that is held in a classroom setting.

      Anonymous interview candidate
      New York, NY
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Duane Reade (New York, NY) in Sept 2016

      Interview

      I went to a job fair September 28 and a day later (29) received a call to go in for store interview for the 30. Not sure if it went good or bad, meet some of the staff interviewed with assistant manager. I was told I'm waiting on the rest of my background check to be reviewed and that was on 7 of October. So almost two weeks and haven't heard anything back. Is that a bad thing? How long does the back ground check take?

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Tell me a time you had to discipline an employee. How did the employee respond and did it change things for the better or worse?

      Interview

      It was a 1 on 1 interview at their headquarters. The meeting was pretty standard; talk about work experience, education, and answer one of those questionnaires that ask about your customer service skills. It was professional yet very casual. The female interviewer was really nice.
