I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Five Below (Dallas, TX) in May 2013
Interview
Process was as expected; met with several individuals. Since they are moving into my market and looking to hire a number of people, I was asked for referrals. At times, it felt that they were only interested in the referrals and information I could provide at my current employer instead of me. Follow up was inconsistent; sometimes I would hear from them when they said I would but other times, it took longer than they said it would. In the end, I received an offer but it was lower than we had discussed during the interview process and lower than what I said my minimum was. Again, that had me wondering why we went through the motions if they knew I was too highly compensated for them. The only explanation I could come up with was that they wanted to pump me for information and referrals.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
None of the questions were too difficult or unexpected. They revolved around my experience, why I was seeking a change.
The interviews ( 2 ) went great and then I was ghosted, I reached out multiple times and never got a response after I was shown how the systems worked and told I was a perfect fit for the role.

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.
