I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Pep Boys (Austin, TX) in Sept 2011
Interview
The disctrict manager found my resume floating around on careerbuilder.com He called me while I was at work to find out if I still needed a job. I met with the district manager at a Pep Boys Location for the interview. It was very easy and pleasant. He discussed the company and what they were looking for and asked me questions about what I was looking for.
I applied in-person. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Pep Boys (Tyler, TX)
Interview
The service manager had me complete an online quiz over simple customer service and math. After the quiz results were looked over by the manager, I was called back in to do a one on one interview. Times available to work, experience with automobiles and what I wanted to get/learn from the company was talked about. I really thought that the interview was more about my personality and how I might interact with other associates if hired.
