Anonymous Interview Candidate in Pryor, OK

Negative Experience
Easy Interview
Application

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Dollar General (Pryor, OK) in Jun 2016

Interview

I got called multiple times, and ultimately had two interviews. (There were both supposed to be with the manager, but the manager didn't show up on the day I was scheduled to have it.) On the second interview, with the actual manager, she told me that they liked me and that I would hear back within a week and to call if I didn't. I didn't hear back, and when I called another assistant manager (not the one I had the first interview with) had no clue what I was talking about. I guess I didn't get the job, even though they wasted over two weeks of my time.

Easy Interview
Application

I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Dollar General (Marion, IN) in Feb 2015

Interview

It was somewhat haphazard. The first time I came in for an interview, I was told that the District Manager would be late. He then could not attend, and I had to reschedule. The second time, he was again late but at least this time I was permitted to wait until he arrived, almost an hour after my own timely arrival. The interview itself was a bit random, as their computer system was down and they couldn't access my application. Luckily, they knew that I was supposed to be there, so this was only a minor impediment. It contributed to a longer interview than I am accustomed to, as they required me to re-answer many questions I had answered on the application. This was not a problem, and I feel I actually got to know them better this way.

Do you experience that how long the hiring process would take at Thermo Fisher? I got my second interview with hiring manager at the beginning of November but I haven’t heard nothing from them. When I’ve emailed them to check in they just said that the process would be slow, no time frame. I would be able to get an offer soon from other company but work as contractor. Should I wait for Thermo Fisher?

Booz Allen Hamilton Recently applied and I've been referred for an interview! Any tips on interviewing with Booz Allen? And if I am being asked to complete clearance and background upfront, is this a good indicator for being hired?

Applied for a job a few weeks back, got a call from HR yesterday morning about an interview next week. She mentioned she'd shoot me an email with all the interview details, but so far, my inbox is empty. Assuming I'll hear from her early next week, is it normal for them to expect me to show up for an in-person interview on short notice, like couple days?
