I interviewed at Fastenal (Little Chute, WI) in May 2016
Interview
I had a pre-interview because the district manager was unable to make it. It was very casual conversation about position and expectations. Questions about myself and background and why I was interested in the Fastenal company.

Question 1
What was it I was looking for and where did I see myself in the company.
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Fastenal (Westminster, CO) in May 2023
Interview
No effort at all. On the phone things were great and I was hopeful. In person, he could see I was female and his demeanor changed completely. It was obvious he was asking "BS" questions to just get the interview over with.
