      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Spring Valley, CA
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Big Lots (Spring Valley, CA) in May 2018

      Interview

      It went very smooth, the interviewer was professional Although customers kept walking past as it was held in the furniture section of the store, at a table on display. That lended itself to distraction however the interview was accomplished despite this.

      Stocking Associate Interview

      Aug 2, 2022
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Martinsburg, WV
      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Big Lots (Martinsburg, WV) in Jun 2019

      Interview

      As soon as I walked into the hiring personnel's office I was told I didn't need to sit down since this would be quick. She seemed completely disinterested and begin speeding through what would be expected of me, told me I would hardly get any hours, would be required to work weekends, and would only get paid $8.75/hour, and no, they can't budge on pay or schedule. Whole process lasted maybe 5 minutes and after her spiel, she bluntly asked me if I wanted it or not, to which I politely declined. She didn't seem surprised and just went back to whatever she was doing at her desk. Worst interview I've ever had.
