The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Dollar General in Jun 2011
Interview
I applied in store. I got a call the same night asking for me to come in and take an assessment. I came in the next day to take the assessment, which was easy. Then the hiring manager asked me a few questions about school and told me I needed to go home and fill out the Express Hiring information. It wasn't reallly an interview at all. I was told I had to take the assessment to even have my application be considered, so I was very suprised when the hiring manager started talking about my starting pay and first day of work.
I interviewed at Dollar General (Roanoke Rapids, NC)
Interview
The interview process was laid back and I felt comfortable to ask the hiring manager questions. I was respected and understood everything the manager was saying. I went into the back and we sat down and she told me about my position. She made it very clear as to what I had to do. She let me ask my questions that I had written before.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The one thing they asked me was why I wanted the job.
I applied online through the website and the managed called me. I scheduled an interview over the phone. I was taken to the office where she asked me some questions (I don't remember them) and I handed her my resume. She basically hired me there, I think.
I applied in-person. I interviewed at Dollar General (Gower, MO) in Aug 2025
Interview
They told me my responsibilities and I was hired. The only question I was asked is "Do you have any questions?" Most definitely the easiest interview of my life. I got hired for showing up.
