I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Fastenal (Muscle Shoals, AL) in Apr 2015
Interview
Interview process was long. I submitted my application online and had my first interview with a GM 2 weeks later. I was told I would be called to setup a second interview with the district manager. After three weeks I was finally called and had the second interview. After this interview I was told to get a copy of my motor vehicle report and turn it into the GM. A week after that I began my first day.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Fastenal (Buena Park, CA) in Mar 2015
Interview
Applied online and took a personality assessment. About a week later I had an in person interview. Very easy interview, just be personable. Just trying to find out what you want to do in life and what motivates you. Got a call with a job offer before I even got home.

How have you worked in teams?
I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Fastenal (Houston, TX) in Aug 2014
Interview
Very fast. Easy to get hired as long as you are personable. You will have one interview, then you will spend half a day riding around with a fastenal employee to see how a typical day is. If you get through that and still like it, they will offer you a job. As long as you can pass a drug test.
