I applied in-person. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Firestone Complete Auto Care (Saint Paul, MN) in Feb 2011
Interview
I received a call for an interview 3 days after applying for this position on Careerbuilder.com. I met with the Store Manager 20 minutes after our scheduled interview time. We discussed my experience, skills and what I was looking for. Then he went over what was entailed to the position. The sales incentatives were miscommunicated to me at this time. I was advised that there would be several opportunities and the earning potential were endless. I found out that this was a lie as I am now an employee. After the 1st interview, a week later I was asked to meet with District Manager. We sat down and went over the exact same stuff as the last with the Store Manager. I was advised they would call me within 3 days. Didn't hear from anyone until 2 weeks later. Then I was offered the job and I took it.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Firestone Complete Auto Care
Interview
Sat down with the Area Manager and Store Manager (not at the same time). Talked about the importance of sales, customer service and product knowledge. This interview was very relaxed and as long as you connect with the individual, you're going to get hired.
The interview process started with a series of phone calls from corporate. After they get general information from you, they call you when they find a store that is in need of employees. Once you have a store, they have you do a face to face interview with the store manager.
