      Cashier Interview

      Sep 11, 2016
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Harbor Freight Tools in Jul 2016

      Interview

      Awkward. Three people asking me totally off the wall questions. Wanted me to answer their questions and when they asked if I had any questions I asked about pay and they would not give me any straight answers. Then they told me they would call me either way to let me know and of course I am still waiting for that call. LOL

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      One of the male managers asked me " How do I know that after I spend a long time with a customer and they go up to your register you are not going to make then mad and cost me the sale?"

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. I interviewed at Harbor Freight Tools in Jan 2026

      Interview

      From the moment I walked into the office for the interview, I sensed I wouldn’t be receiving an offer. I understood I was overqualified, but I was simply seeking a part‑time role for personal reasons. I didn’t receive any feedback until I followed up myself. If attracting talent is truly a priority, timely communication speaks volumes and reflects the culture an organization claims to uphold.
