      Anonymous employee
      Southwick, MA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Ocean State Job Lot (Southwick, MA) in Nov 2016

      Interview

      Heard back from the company the same day I applied. Interview was less structured with rigid questions like the corporate ones I am used to. More laid back, get to know eachother in a relaxing but welcoming atmosphere. In total the interview lasted about an hour and I left with a good feeling about it and the company as a whole.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Can you think of a specific time you had to deal with a difficult team member?

      Assistant Manager Interview

      Jun 26, 2011
      Anonymous employee
      Accepted offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through other source. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Ocean State Job Lot in Mar 2010

      Interview

      I was first called by one of their Field Trainers after she saw my resume online. We set up a phone interview for a couple days later. After the phone interview she and I had a 1:1, after that I had a 1:1 with the regional manager. I was called on my way home with an offer. The regional manager interview was him talking 75%, me 25%. Basically he told me I wasn't qualified for the job for the first half, asking me a few questions, and spent the last 25% telling me my (then) job had no future and how Job Lot was better. Also, they offer you a job pending drug test and background check, which can take 2+ weeks. So don't quit your day job till you get the result. I see a lot of people who don't pass. Bad credit etc. They don't call you bak if you fail, FYI, they mail you something.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Tell me about a time when you set an aisle that wasn't planogrammed.
