      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Kmart (Los Angeles, CA) in Apr 2017

      Interview

      I applied online. Went to an interview in the store. The lady told me this Kmart is open 'for now'. Apparently where the store was they raised the rent on the property and they could not afford it. I was hired and told that 'it was kmart' so don't expect to move up. Basically it's a dead end job lol. Sad. I got the job and worked there. Quit and soon after they did end up closing the store.

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Kmart (Christiansted, VI) in Sept 2016

      Interview

      I waited a month and didn't receive a call. Hence, I called to speak to personnel and they gave me an interview. About two weeks later, I got a call from them. In this call, they told me that I had to come in for training. So, I spent approximately two weeks doing paid training.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Kmart (Platteville, WI) in Jun 2015

      Interview

      After submitting the application, the woman hiring me just asked me about my experience, if I was willing to travel, learn where needed due to understaff, and asked for a background check and class schedule. The application was online and there was a phone call a head of time to review some information. It was a pretty quick process and went smoothly, their biggest concern was working nights and weekends. I had class during the day, so that worked out great. The interview was sit down and you could tell that she was interested in appearance and advised of the possible commute to another location.

      Question 1

      What is your availability? It was very prominent that this was important.
