Interviewed Jun 2011 (took 1+ week)
Initial phone interview, then interview with district manager and finally store manager, drug screen and background check. Be real, don't put up a front. If you're not willing to work hard don't waste their time. TSC's values are pretty self explanatory: Ethics, Respect, Balance, Winning Attitude, Communication, Development, Teamwork, Change (embrace it), Initiative, Accountability. Know these when they ask you what you know about TSC and know that unlike everywhere else you've interviewed, TSC lives by them.If you aren't willing or able to live by them, TSC is not the career for you. Some hardware, equine or other type of rural general knowledge helpful. Clothing experience may also be helpful.

Interviewed Jan 2012 in Lockport, NY (took 2 days)
Interviewed by a panel of 4. All stone faced. Stressful from the start. Asked a series of routine questions, eg: Your greatest accomplishment, etc. and some bizarre questions like, how would you handle an employee that didn't talk much, and what would people say about you at your funeral.
Two of the panel members said nothing and took notes throughout the 45 minute interview.
I was not offered the position, and frankly, I'm relieved.

Interviewed Jan 2012 (took a day)
I was brought into a room told to sit in the chair on one side of the table. Three interviewers sat on the other. The questions were gruleing and went on for an hour. It felt like I was being interigated rather than interviewed.Questions came in rapid sucession for an entire hour with little to no time to think.

Interviewed Jun 2011 in Anniston, AL (took 2 weeks)
Applied online got a call 2 weeks later to schedule interview for that day. Interview was about an hour and was straightforward with what they wanted and expected. Asked questions in regards to experience and skills. Discussed pay and work schedule. Told me he liked me and next step was interview with dm in the mean time he would call my references and let me know asap.

Interviewed Aug 2009 (took 4 weeks)
Walked into local store and found assistant manager was resigning in 2 weeks. Filled out application and left it with store manager. Was called for interview 1 week later. Interviewed by store manager using structured interview packet. Standard questions re work experience, previous management positions, responsibilities, etc. Questions related to finacials, people, customer service, problem solving, etc. Store manager called a few days later to set up interview with District Manager. More detailed interview with DM. Discussed details of previous employment. Why I wanted to work for company? Future plans...
DM called 1 week later to set up interview with Regional Manager who conducted phone interview. RM asked same questions and was very non committal. Store manager called 1 week later and offerred me the job. Initial offer was insulting but finally came up to an accepable rate of pay after he talked to the DM. I took a sustantial cut in pay even then but was looking for the better hours and working conditions this job affords.

No room for negotiation above established pay range. Pay scale is average to slightly below average for this area. I am nearing retirement and am financially secure. Money is not my primary motivation. Hours are favorable to family.
