I applied in-person. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Sam's Club (San Marcos, TX) in Aug 2012
Interview
Just went in, filled out an application and asked if they were hiring for any positions. They said they were hiring for a cashier position and asked if I had any experience with cash registers. I said yes, and we scheduled an interview for that Friday. I came in dressed in business casual attire, and one of the check-out supervisors interviewed me first, asked pretty basic question like " How would you deal with an irate customer?" and other basic questions like that. She was fine with all of my answers and then sent me to an office to speak to a hiring manager. Had a short conversation with her and she offered me the job. Pretty simple.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The hiring manager asked me to sell her something. Anything. I described an imaginary shirt in a detailed and overly complimentary way. Worked out fine.
It was good process and was happy with the interview. Very easy going and I did not wait to see the person I was interviewing with. It was casual and I understood what the job entailed
I applied online. I interviewed at Sam's Club (Newington, CT) in Dec 2025
Interview
The interviewer loved me and even spoke with the manager and got the green light to send me the offer letter. I got a rejection letter at 1am on Sunday, 3 days later. I called them 4 times, left my name and number, even applied for a different position and was told again I would be getting an offer letter.
I called a 5th time and they claimed they did a hiring freeze, they even showed me the note they wrote on my interview saying I was perfect. They still never called me back or hired me.

Question 1
They asked typical questions, availability, experience and thats basically it
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Sam's Club
Interview
I wish I was able to go back in time to tell myself to not apply for this company. My experience with the interviewer was unprofessional. The manager didn’t remember my name or who I was when she was the one who organized the meeting. I had to initiate the handshake when she didn’t offer it. The whole interview was less than 15 minutes, and it was basically just her dumping a whole bunch of info about what to expect at the job and rarely gave me time to talk. The interview felt very one-sided. At the end, she was just like, “ Okay, bye” and turned her back against me in her chair. I wasted so much time preparing for this excuse of an interview and was slapped in the face with a rejection email the next day. Honestly, I’m glad I didn’t get the job, I’d rather not work with a manager who is that unprofessional. They really need to train their managers in knowing how to interview applicants.
