I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Fastenal (Ottawa, KS) in Jan 2016
Interview
The hiring process is a fairly stream lined process. The process includes that you have to be invited to a very informal and short, but informative, over-the-phone interview with someone from HR. After making past that interview, you go on to the interview with the store manager who has the decision to make whether or not he/she believes you're a good fit for the company and the store. After making past the first two interviews, you get to interview with the General Manager, who then again decides your fate. After interviewing with the GM and Regional Manager, both will discuss whether or not you are fit to work at Fastenal. After the job offer is extended to you, you are required to take a drug analysis test for illegal drugs

Interview
I applied online and was contacted for an interview less than a week later. I interviewed at the local branch and then at a regional hub. They asked some technical questions about product which I did not have an great answer for but they were decent to deal with and willing to train for the position.

I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Fastenal
Interview
It was pretty easy. The basic questions were asked by the interviewer and they were very straight forward and easy to answer. You get two or three interviews and they are both fairly short in the length of time they each take.
