I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Goodwill (Corvallis, OR) in Jan 2012
Interview
I saw an ad for the job opening on Craigslist.org. I then went to their job connection center and applied. I was interviewed on the spot. I was called back for two additional interviews. I was offered the job at the third interview and had 24 hours to take a drug test.

Question 1
"Tell me about a time you disagreed with your supervisor and how it was resolved."
Easy; straightforward. There were two managers. One asked questions about my job history and the other asked questions about my experience being a cashier at the previous job I worked.
Process was pretty straight forward. Asked a few questions, shared about my experience, and was able to ask any clarification questions. Good experience even though I didn’t take the role
