I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Roses Discount Stores (Macon, GA) in May 2018
Interview
Applied online called by a recruiter, interviewed with her and was set up to speak with Regional Manager. A week later I spoke with Regional Manager asked me to drive to a location 6 hours away where I met with someone who was already working with the company going up for the same position I was interviewing for....weird and disorganized.
Feedback in between stages is slow if any...the whole process was disorganized. Long after I had forgotten about the interviews I was called from an entirely different region, I was not about to waste time and money again travelling on my own dime, so I politely decline. Seems to be an old boys club, they do not attract new new talent which is unfortunate because their softlines department has great potential with the right know how and fresh perspective. The region was going through changes at the Regional level, maybe they will get their act together for future candidates.

Question 1
Are you single? Our insurance does not cover spouses or children... (yes really...these men advanced in years need some HR training)
I applied online. I interviewed at Roses Discount Stores
Interview
Spoke to recruiter, interviewed with regional. It has been months and despite stating the position needed to be filled immediately it still has not been filled. Never encountered a company that wasn't sure when or if they were going to proceed after posting and interviewing for the position. Compared to similar companies this process appears to be extremely unprofessional and inefficient. I haven't got an offer but no one else has either. If you're in a hurry look elsewhere. Should've expected based on other Glassdoor interview feedback for this company.
