I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Goodwill (Indianapolis, IN) in Apr 2013
Interview
The interview process is very casual. They ask you the generic interview questions, and really no matter what you say they pretty much hire you. They hire almost anyone. It's part of their company value to give everyone a chance.
You would have to be late, or rude in order for them to turn you down. They have to fill out online forms when they decide not to hire someone saying why they didn't, and most of the managers are too lazy to do that so they pretty much have already decided to hire you once they call you in for an interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time when you failed to complete a project/task, and how did you handle the situation.
Easy; straightforward. There were two managers. One asked questions about my job history and the other asked questions about my experience being a cashier at the previous job I worked.
Process was pretty straight forward. Asked a few questions, shared about my experience, and was able to ask any clarification questions. Good experience even though I didn’t take the role
