Inventory Associate at WIS International

Accepted Offer – Reviewed Apr 20, 2013

Interview Details – I applied online and was contacted via email one week later. The email had a questionnaire that they asked me to respond to, and it was typical interview questions (tell me about a time when...) that would have been difficult if it were a face-to-face interview. She called me the next day and asked me to come in to "continue" the interview. I watched a short video about the company and she asked me a few yes/no questions about whether or not I could do the job. It was hardly an interview. The only interview-type question was "what are your strengths and weaknesses?" A few days later I came in for a 3-hour training class with six other people, and I started working a few days after that. There's really not much you can say or do that WON'T get you the job. They will hire pretty much anybody. Note: there was a criminal background check but no drug test.

Interview Question – What are you strengths? What are your weaknesses?   Answer Question

Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Boise, ID Apr 2011 – Reviewed Apr 18, 2013

Interview Details – Easy to fill out app online but I did have employees referral to help me get the interview... very easy interview overall. I was pretty much already hired when I showed for interview so all I really had to do was hiring paperwork and pass background check and of course I was willing to work any hours.

Inventory Associate at WIS International

Accepted Offer – Reviewed Feb 12, 2013

Interview Details – Go online, finish the application, the boss will call you in a day or so. Go to an interview in a cold, warehouse looking building that doesn't look at all professional. Get a call that day or the next day telling you you're hired and fill out all this paperwork. Fill it out. Get a call for 'paid training'. Go to training. Don't really learn anything.

Interview Question – No real questions asked. I really do not recommend this job. Actually, I STRONGLY advise against it.   Answer Question

Negotiation Details – No negotiation. You completely surrender your time and gas and they give you the bare minimum for your toils.

Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Sacramento, CA Dec 2012 – Reviewed Jan 13, 2013

Interview Details – I applied online for the driver position through Indeed.com. I was emailed 2 days later to come in for an interview. When I came in there was about 12 other people there. The hiring manager went over the general position requirements and information about the company. I was informed that even though I applied for driver, everyone starts as an inventory associate. You watch a video and do a practice session with the handheld counter. Then do 1 on 1 interviews. The whole process was long (be sure to eat dinner first!) It took over 4 hours. After the initial interview, I received an email telling me I was hired and to come back for orientation in 2 days. That also took about 4 hours.

Interview Question – Name a time when you had to work with someone you did not get along with. What did you do?   View Answer

Negotiation Details – There is no negotiation. You can either take the job for minimum wage or not take it.
