I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at O'Reilly Auto Parts (Laplace, LA) in May 2012
Interview
I was asked a series of questions about my previous employment, my family, my interests, and then they ask me about my knowledge of parts, and vehicle systems, as well as weather or not i knew how to use the parts catalogs and the look-up system. I was taken around the store and shown what products they sell, and asked questions about some of the more popular products to test my knowledge. After that i was sent to the hub store to take a class on the ins and outs of O'Reillys.
'Tell me about yourself' question first followed by time management questions, how to deal with customers that are having a rough day, etc. interview process took about 30min from beginning to end
I applied online. I interviewed at O'Reilly Auto Parts (Phoenix, AZ) in Apr 2018
Interview
The interview was fairly straight forward. No two stores are the same, there is a "suggested" list of questions but all the interviews I saw were different. Just be confident and courteous.
