I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Fleet Farm (Brooklyn Park, MN) in Sep 2013
Interview
I applied online and was called about a week later to arrange a one-on-one interview with a manager, about a week after that.
It was a pretty stress-free interview. Took about 30 minutes. The manager had a list of questions he read off a paper: Why I wanted to work at Fleet Farm, what do you expect from an employee, is there any reason that it's ok to be late for work... The questions are pretty easy. I was never asked about how I would deal with a difficult customer, like they do for other retail jobs.
I was also given 3 or 4 stapled sheets of paper with a list of responsibilities the job would entail - helping customers, keeping shelves stocked, keeping whatever section I was working in clean, learning to drive a forklift, etc. Simple enough tasks.
Unfortunately, I didn't get the job because I didn't have any references outside of my family (this would have been my first job).

Question 1
The hardest question for me was to recall a time where I failed at something and how I dealt with it. The way it was worded made it sound as if the "failure" I needed to recall was something major. I'm not a risk taker so I didn't really have an answer for it. Thankfully, the interviewer said it was ok if I didn't have an answer for some of the questions.
I applied in-person. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Fleet Farm in Jun 2022
Interview
They called me pretty quick for an interview met with a manager on duty for it. Really nice guy. Easy interview. The pay was just way too low, you can get 50 percent more for the same thing at Menards across the street. I like Fleet and think I would have liked working there.

I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Fleet Farm (Blaine, MN)
Interview
Very laid back, straight forward interview process. No hard questions. The manager was very friendly and made the environment comfortable. The interview began with basic questions about prior job experience, and then asked questions about how I personally handled (or would handle) different scenarios in the work place. These scenarios included improving sales, dealing with shop lifters, dealing with poor coworkers, and irate customers.
