I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Advance Auto Parts (Lindenhurst, NY) in Mar 2014
Interview
It did not feel like an interview. Walked in, asked for GM or hiring manager. The staff there was very nice, they told me to wait because the GM will be back in a short time. I spoke to the GM, the district manager walks in shortly. I answered a few common questions. The next thing I know, I'm taking the test for the position.
