      Sales Associate Interview

      24 Jun 2011
      Anonymous employee
      Iowa City, IA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Walmart (Iowa City, IA) in Jun 2011

      Interview

      I applied online, and after a week, I was called in for an interview. The entire interview process took about two hours (which includes waiting before and in-between interviews). I had two 1:1 interviews: the first with the department manager of the section I was being considered for, and the second with who I believe was one of the managers (but could have possibly been another department manager). Both ladies were very friendly and charismatic, which made the whole process more enjoyable. Before you answer questions, the manager will have you look over your information and verify everything is correct. They will also go over your availability. Afterwards, you will be asked about five situational questions per interview, each having multiple follow-up questions. ("Describe a time when ..." "How did you go about doing this?" "What procedures did you follow that helped complete it?" "What do you think were the results?" -- This is what one question might look like.) If you're honest and answer thoroughly, the interviewer probably won't ask to clarify any of the follow-ups. Following the second interview, job duties and salaries were discussed. (I was offered $7.83/hr for a pay grade 4 job plus $0.30/hr for having worked at Wal-Mart before, for a total of $8.13/hr.) After accepting the job, I met with the wonderful Personnel associate who went over my background check and drug-testing.

      There was a lot of questions but overall it went pretty decent. They were your standard interview questions. I am happy with the outcome but maybe I could do better next time.

      Interview

      Solid and very well informative process. It was straightforward and well put together. I really enjoyed the people that I interacted with and ultimately chose another route due to time constraints.
