I interviewed at Fastenal (Forest Grove, OR) in Mar 2014
Interview
Very easy and typical. Met with general manager in store and answered normal interview questions. Manager was friendly and the questions were easy. He then explained how the store worked and answered any questions I had. Then had to meet with district manager. Set up a time to meet him and had an interview.

Question 1
Your greatest weakness and short term and long term goals.
I applied online. I interviewed at Fastenal (Tacoma, WA) in Apr 2022
Interview
It was quick, probably a week after applying online, but a comfortable experience; the interview itself was about 45 minutes. They asked all of the typical interview questions; it felt informal, more like they were seeing if I was a good fit for the store and position. They provided plenty of time to think about the questions they asked. It was in the store that I had applied to with the store manager and the district manager. I heard back probably a week or two later, I was offered the position, and I accepted.
