First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Dollar General.
Field Service and Commissioning Engineer
The interview was engaging and professional, and I found it to be insightful. I really liked the respectful atmosphere, how clear the communication was, and the questions asked were thoughtful. It made the whole experience really positive, and it encouraged me and motivated me to think about future collaboration opportunities.
- Can you tell me why you decided to leave your previous job?
Customer Service Associate
I showed up 5 minutes early to the store for my interview with Linda, the Assistant Manager. She came to greet me with a smile and we went to the office, which was pretty small and full of boxes. Linda mentioned they were short-staffed and dealing with an employee having to leave early. The interview was quite brief and felt a bit rushed. She let me know that due to corporate needs, she could only guarantee 5-15 hours per week. I confirmed that this was acceptable, provided there were chances to pick up extra shifts from other employees who might be on vacation or taking leave.
- What days are you available to work each week?
Staff
I spent 6 weeks going through 4 rounds of interviews and then got ghosted. No communication, no emails responded to. A hiring manager even missed one of my interviews and didn't apologize when it got rescheduled. I guess I dodged a bullet, but I should have checked the other reviews before thinking I'd be 'different'. Why would I believe a company the size of DG would have a good process and not ghost finalists? Listen to the other awful reviews and don't waste your time!
- Can you discuss your previous work experience and your motivations for seeking this role?
Social Media Specialist
Me pediram um exercício de análise da Rede Social que foi uma consultoria completa, dizendo ser para analisar minhas competências. Nisso, você presta uma consultoria completa, com dois dias completos de pesquisa e proposta, para a empresa e não é contratado. Para quem trabalha com isso, é fácil fazer, a questão é que existem outras formas de analisar performance, sem explorar um profissional que está no momento precisando de trabalho e entrega o seu melhor, sem garantia.
- Could you constructively analyze the company's Instagram account?
