      Receiving Associate Interview

      Nov 8, 2012
      Anonymous employee
      Mansfield, TX
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Walmart (Mansfield, TX) in Mar 2008

      Interview

      I was called in for one interview, in which, I was hired.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      I think that the questions they asked, though difficult were pretty regular questions today. They asked me to describe a time when _______________. They wanted you to fill in the blank as to a story that would show that you had been creative in dealing with problems. That you could show samples of good customer service, that you were a team player. The most important thing with them is that you could give an example.

      Called in, asked generic HR questions, went over previous experience in warehouse work. They seemed interested in anything that involves moving boxes from one place to another and reading labels.

      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Walmart (Phoenix, AZ) in Mar 2015

      Interview

      Applied late on a Thursday night, got a call that Friday, interviewed the following Tuesday. I arrived right on time and was told to wait for the interviewer. Wasn't long before I was taken back to their office. Questions were extremely basic behavioral and experience based. Most of them were just the same couple questions worded slightly differently. I answered 9 questions total between two separate interviewers. I received an offer on the spot, pending the usual background check and drug test results. Everyone I dealt with was friendly and the atmosphere was relaxed - exactly what you'd expect for this sort of position. I was in and out in an hour flat.

      What was a problem you faced and what steps did you take to overcome it? What was the outcome?
