Question 1
How would you handle an employee that wasn't following directions?
I applied online. I interviewed at Five Below (South Plainfield, NJ) in Apr 2024
Interview
I traveled for almost an hour to get to this interview and was 10 minutes early. The DM was in the middle of an interview when I got there, so I was told I can browse around the store until my time came. Well, the time my interview was suppose to start came and the DM was still interviewing the same candidate, the DM saw me, so they knew I was waiting. The DM finished with that interview 40 minutes after mines was suppose to start. I didn't get the job, but I no longer wanted to work for a company with people who clearly do NOT respect your time.

I applied online. I interviewed at Five Below (Parkville, MD)
Interview
I had a face to face interview with the training manager which I thought went very well. I was then scheduled for a phone interview on That following Monday with the covering DM. Again I thought the interview went well. I was informed that I would hear something that Wednesday or Thursday. Hear it is 2 weeks later and I have not heard one peep. I don’t mind if they decided to move on, but have the respect and courtesy to let me know.
