Question 1
Describe a time where you faced a challenge and how did you overcome it?
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Giant Eagle (Upper Arlington, OH) in Sep 2012
Interview
Group interview for a few hours with 2-3 managers and the head of HR. You learn about the company and do exercises. Immediately after, I was taken into a separate room with a manager and had a second interview and was hired on the spot (pending I passed a mandatory drug test that all employees take prior to a job offer being final).
