Heee Sarge
So the 10 people at a time is because they are going to hire 120 people. The one on one interview consisted of problem solving and situation questions. I felt it went well and was told at the end that "Karen" would get back to me in 2 weeks after the background checks are completed. It looked like there were 10 more to interview in the lobby when I was leaving. Does it sound like I am hired after the background check is clear? Everyone new is to start after Jan1st

Sure sounds good to me. We only bother to run a background check if we plan to make an offer.

Yeah, cuz that costs money.
Hiring 120 People sounds like a good sign for the economy. You're definitely hired, Nirvana.

Had not thought of it that way Glatt and LJ thanks. I will not starve if I don't have a job but this is a pleasant philanthropic company that cares about the community and 3 days a week way above minimum should be a breeze.

I agree with glatt and LJ, things are looking good for this job. It sounds like a very nice work situation - philanthropy and caring about the community (and way above minimum wage) sound like a winning combination. Let us know how it goes!

Sounds great. I'm sure you have the job. Be careful though, you never know when you'll be assigned pee cup duty

So I got a letter, "offer for employment", and today I am off to pee in a cup and the company requires a physical. For the physical I am thinking its because they offer even part time employees health insurance, vision, dental, short term disability,401 K and life insurance. The letter says a few benefits may require share the cost. I did not expect benefits but I hope I can opt out of the ones I do not need especially if they will cost me money.
I hope they have the real licorice Bruce I might get to eat some and lose fat yay! That would be an added benefit
