I applied in-person. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Havertys (Richmond, VA) in Jan 2010
Interview
Human resources contacted me and ask standard interview questions, for example Can you tell me alittle about yourself then proceeded with more behaviour type questions, for example Can you describe a time you were a team player. After the telephone interview i was then ask to come in for a 1 on 1 with the General Manager within the same week. The 1 on 1 interview was more geared toward details about experience and what I thought i could bring to the company if offered the position. I was then giving a tour of the company and introduced to the manager I would be working under. The next day I was offered the position.
The Company as a whole is a great company to work for. Very structured enviorment with tight deadlines. Everything ran like clock work including mangement with 6 month and yearly reviews for associates.
