Well I was going to the career section on RiteAid.com but there were no postings for what I was looking for. I contacted a recruiter and he sat down and did an initial interview with me. Then I met a DM who was in the recruiter's office space, but he sadly had zero openings. I also talked to the general HR manager and he said he had openings but only down south. Not being picky at the time I said, ok lets go for it. I drove literally 300 some miles to my store interview, I was the only one dressed up in a suit and tie in my round of interviews, but I was among older staff. I interviewed from a script that district manager had made by themselves, not the company. There really was no interview link between any of the DM interviews, they were all based on the DM so don't expect a typical packet and note writing approach. I finished, they gave me kudos from driving so far and I was told to contact them in 2 weeks they hadn't told me either way. I did contact them but the never got back to me. So, I contacted the recruiter again asking abot openings in my area. I was in luck, there was one DM hiring in the region in my area now. I sat down with the DM and he was wowed by my strong resume and background, most of his managers had not gone to college or had tons of experience he said. I was to meet with a store manager he had to get his approval and that would be my store, I went later that week and the store manager loved me so we were set.... right? wrong. The DM basically ignored the store manager and myself about the situation for about 4 months... This totalling 6 months of trying to get my foot in the door. I called the store I was supposed to be at one day and he hired or moved someone else there, I was shocked that no one told me since I was told that was my spot. So I get on the wire and call the DM's cell phone while out of state looking for more work to figure out what happened. Seems he forgot about me, barely remembered who I was even though I was calling his secretary once a week or two, and emailing him reminders. He then asked what store manager I went to see (that he told me to go see) and then he remembered. He said he filled that spot via promotion and forgot to tell me. He said if I can come back asap he might have a spot for me but it has to be soon. I booked my flight and came back and he re-interviewed me again, apparently he really didn't remember... He also cussed several times and made colorful remarks about how he wanted to fire the "old generation" of managers and I would be a good fit. Be confident and ready to sell yourself more than usual, try to take control of the interview because it is informal. Once you add a "wow" factor then they basically say yes. A lot of their management staff has high turnover or just doesn't work very hard (this is what the DM said). They are big on leadership and results with low payroll, their payroll they have is 1/2 other drug retailers, so be aware.
