Employee theft is a very real problem for many companies. While AutoZone has loss prevention initiatives in place, they also want to hire honest employees in their other departments. Your interviewer wants to make sure not only that you would not steal from the company but that you would also prevent thefts.

"My reaction to employee theft would differ if I were a retail associate or manager. If I were a manager and caught an employee stealing, I would terminate them immediately. If I were an associate, I would report the incident according to company protocol. I would avoid approaching the employee as I would not want to make it a personal issue."

"During the first week I worked in retail, one of my coworkers was caught stealing cash from the register. It was a little family-run shop, so I was even more horrified that my coworker would steal from them. The employee was fired immediately, and the rest of the team members were informed during our next shifts. I would never betray my employers' confidence like that. I would notify my manager immediately if I suspected or witnessed a coworker stealing. That behavior is unacceptable, no matter where you work."
