Anonymous Interview Candidate in Pryor, OK
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Dollar General (Pryor, OK) in Jun 2016
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.
- They asked about availability and previous experience.

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