Got a call back pretty fast after applying on Glassdoor. They set up the interview quick. When I got there, I had to fill out some paperwork. Then, I met with the manager in their office for what felt like a pretty casual chat. I did a drug test and they started the background check right after. After the results came back, they called me to schedule an orientation.

I applied in person at the Woodstock, IL store. The store manager called me within three weeks to set up an interview. I interviewed with Carl, the Assistant Manager, the next Tuesday. The interview process was quick. They asked basic questions about my job history, like which past job I liked most and least and why. I felt like I answered honestly and respectfully. At the end, Carl gave me a Vangart personality test to complete, which I answered truthfully. He said they would contact me afterward, whether it was good, bad, or indifferent news. I called that Friday to follow up, and Carl told me they were still interviewing and would contact me within a week. I was hopeful because I had an employee referral. Later that day, I got a card from Carl saying they didn't have a position to offer me at this time after serious thought.

A store employee I knew told me about a full-time opening in the ag department. I filled out a paper application and gave it to them. They called me on the phone to schedule an interview. I ended up interviewing for two days. After that, I took a drug test. They told me I got the job and I came in to begin the training, which included a tour of the store and watching training videos.
