      Sales Specialist Interview

      Aug 21, 2018
      Anonymous employee
      Richmond, VA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Fastenal (Richmond, VA) in Mar 2016

      Interview

      Very easy going. I felt over dressed. Questions are typical interview questions. Resume doesn't seem to matter all that much. I was hired within days. This is a fun place to work, as Average Joe is your customer. Training is great.
