Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at O'Reilly Auto Parts.
Sales Representative
I applied online and then interviewed at one location. A couple days later, I was referred to another location for an interview. The manager at the first place was kind of awkward, but the manager at the second place was nice. They both actually wanted me for a delivery driver position. The second interview didn't involve many questions, mostly just explaining the job responsibilities. I didn't get an offer this time, but I feel like I could reapply later, maybe at the same or a different location, since I was just a bit nervous during the first couple of interviews.
- What makes you the best candidate for this job?
Sales Representative
Like with any job, they'll give you a call and arrange a good time for an interview. Once you get there, they'll ask you the basic questions, such as 'Tell me about yourself.' They also ask about common automotive skills, simple knowledge of parts, or what you would recommend selling. For example, if someone is buying a water pump, try to sell them antifreeze.
- They really look into past work experience because they plan on keeping the employee employed.
Sales
Interview was good, then they asked me to do a formal application via a call after we spoke. I completed the requested information. Then nothing back, no word at all. Seems odd they need help but won't follow through.
- Can you tell me about your experience?
- What is your availability?
- Could you describe your work history?
