I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Rite Aid (New York, NY) in Jun 2012
Interview
Well i applied in person to the store. They gave an application to fill out. I filled it out and waited for the manager to show up so i can give him in person. Three days later i contacted him again, he assured me that they were looking at my application. It was bad time for me, and i needed a job immediately. Thankfully the DM of that Store contacted me for an interview. I went to meet him, i think, around 10 in the morning. There wasn't much of any job related question, like what i do now(invoices, auditing etc). He asked me if i knew how to use a computer and i said yes. Then rest of interview felt like causal conversation to me. Like what i did before, my old neighborhood. He shared how many stores what was looking after etc. Then he gave me few forms to fill out and told me make an appointment for drug test and gave me the dress code requirements. I joined the following day.
They were relatively friendly and polite. They had multiple schedules and a little bit understaffed so not all were available. Still a good starter job and professional interview w a manager.
Very thorough and professional. They want to know and make sure that you are able to stay on your feet and be proactive around the store. They are very welcoming and look forward to training new employees
I submitted online application, get scheduled for an interview and then i walk in,managet asked me some questions, hire on spot. Easy procress, as long as they have vacancy, usually get hired.
