      Assistant Manager Hardlines Interview

      Jul 28, 2015
      Anonymous employee
      Indianapolis, IN
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through other source. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Kmart (Indianapolis, IN) in Feb 2014

      Interview

      Interview process was very quick and the entire interview was no more than 20 minutes. Several situational "what ifs" were presented and the dreaded what is your greatest weakness/strength. I received a call on the way home from the interview to return for a second interview and an offer on the spot. However, being an internal applicant, my store manager dragged his feet over a month before releasing me to the position.

      Interview questions [2]
