I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Dollar General (Palmyra, IN) in Sep 2013
Interview
I went into the store one day and asked if they were hiring. They said yes, and told me to apply online. I did this, waited a few days, then called the store. They asked me to come in for an interview that day. I came in a couple of hours later, the manager took me into the break room and just asked me a few preliminary interview questions (what my hobbies were, if I was still in school, etc.) I got the job on the spot.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
All the questions were pretty easy. They asked me, "Why do you want to work here?" which is always hard to answer
I interviewed at Dollar General (Roanoke Rapids, NC)
Interview
The interview process was laid back and I felt comfortable to ask the hiring manager questions. I was respected and understood everything the manager was saying. I went into the back and we sat down and she told me about my position. She made it very clear as to what I had to do. She let me ask my questions that I had written before.

Question 1
The one thing they asked me was why I wanted the job.
I applied online through the website and the managed called me. I scheduled an interview over the phone. I was taken to the office where she asked me some questions (I don't remember them) and I handed her my resume. She basically hired me there, I think.
I applied in-person. I interviewed at Dollar General (Gower, MO) in Aug 2025
Interview
They told me my responsibilities and I was hired. The only question I was asked is "Do you have any questions?" Most definitely the easiest interview of my life. I got hired for showing up.
