I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Discount Tire (Bellevue, WA) in Aug 2011
Interview
See if there is a "Now Hiring" sign. Walk in the door. Ask to speak to a manager. Inquire about the open position. Fill out the application at the very location or take it home (optional). Submit the application to the manager. A 3-5 minute interview as to why you want to sign your youth away or put yourself in a dead-end job as I would like to call it as the "dream crusher" and then you're hired! Hiring process complete after passing the drug test, of course.
They made me wait for like 20 minutes and i went in a room and the manager(i think) interviewed me. They just described what was it like working for discount tire.
I applied online. I interviewed at Discount Tire in Feb 2026
Interview
Phone interview was told about dress code and no face or neck tattoos, arms and hand tattoos must be covered. Scheduled in person interview, was told that the dress code also had a facial hair requirement, no facial hair longer than a size 3 shaving guard. I have a 3inch long well taken care of beard so I ended the interview quickly.
I called, asked for an interview, didn't go to a location unless they greenlit the interview, went in there, they ask generic questions and just answer to best of your ability.
