Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I was not asked any difficult questions. I think this will vary greatly depending on the person interviewing you. I was asked standard interview questions.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Sears (Lancaster, PA)
Interview
Not bad. Usual questions. They mostly wanna know what you bring to the table. Strengths, weaknesses, improvements you need to make, etc. Took about 45 minutes. Once you are given an offer, they do a background check, which may or may not involve drug test. Prepare as if there is one, just to be safe.
