      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at The Salvation Army

      Interview

      I was immediately welcomed into the interview room. The manager made sure that no outside interruptions would be made; there was a sign on the door. He informed me that there were supposed to be two parts to the interview (phone and face-to-face), and asked me if I was comfortable doing them both at that time. I agreed, and the entire interview took between 45 minutes to an hour. Overall the manager was very friendly and understanding; he was engaged in my responses and provided follow-up comments.
