Applied online for Circle K in Parker, CO. The hiring manager called me the following Monday. I told him I wasn't prepared or properly dressed for the interview, so we rescheduled for 10 AM that day since he would be out for almost a week. The interview went well, and he said he'd ask the company to 'hurry up' the offer. He mentioned he had another interview for the position but that I could be a team member for 90 days and then move into the Assistant Manager position at that same store, regardless of whether he hired the other person. Everything seemed good at the end, but when I checked the Circle K website later, my application was listed as expired the day after the interview.

The manager was super nice and professional when I came in for my interview. They asked a bunch of questions and always checked if I got what they were saying. They were really kind and took me on a tour of the whole store, making sure I knew about everything so it wouldn't be too tough when I started. My coworkers were awesome, I was really impressed.
