Interviewed Oct 2011 in Saratoga Springs, NY (took 2 days)
Informal interview process. Stress interview structure to bargain cheaply. Seek to hire people into "trial" positions to establish whether they "fit" into the organizations unusual "culture." Friendly at first but does not last. Candid and abrasive with promises of good intent for employee growth in development, which later on equates to nothing more than micromanagement and mistreatment.

Cheap bargainers seeking lowest possible price. Do not recommend this company for employment.

Interviewed Nov 2011 in Saratoga Springs, NY (took a day)
I had my first interview today. It was with the district manager at one of the local shops. It went well. It was a very personal interview, almost like having a conversation. He asked questions like: "Where do you see yourself in 5 years? Why Stewart's? and about my prior work experience. He told me that they will contact me for a second interview in 7-10 days, if they decide to. He also went over my application which had a variety of questions on it. Overall, I felt very comfortable and thought it went well.

Interviewed Aug 2009 in Oswego, NY (took 5 days)
I was called three weeks after I submitted my application to the district manager via fax. I was set up for an interview for a few days later. I went, had it rescheduled and then went in the next day. I was interviewed by a district level employee, and was offered a a second interview. I interviewed with the store manager two days after. It was a very personality-centric interview, with a free form style. There were some guiding questions, but it went more as a conversation than anything.

Interviewed Sep 2009 (took 4 days)
First, I was prescreened via phone call---
I asked for cell to be primary contact number, but they called home instead-so, we played phone tag for 2 days
I finally connected to someone, and they set up a time for a phone prescreen
Went well,
scheduled a 1:1 interview, again, with a prescreener--not the person to make the hiring choice
Was told prescreen went well, and I was going to be escalated to next level.
As I was leaving, it was mentioned they do a background check, including credit history
She said it was to see if you were honest, and falling behind on your bills, is not honest.
Then the prescreener left
I called back, and left 3 messages, and also drove back to drop a card to ask them to call me, so iI could explain something (There were some items on the credit report, I wanted to be able to explain)
they never called back, or made an attempt to contact me--2 days later, I received a THANK YOU--BUT letter.....
