Candidatei-me pessoalmente. O processo levou 3 semanas. Fiz uma entrevista na empresa Trader Joe's.
Entrevista
The interviews were pretty straight forward - until the end. Make sure you present yourself as a talkative and outgoing person, they love that. However, if you don't have a wealth of retail or supermarket experience already, forget it!! I had two rounds of face to face interviews that went well (I thought), then I had one final phone interview with someone from their HQ in California, and she was short, rude and dismissive. She basically verified how much retail experience I had or didn't have, then she wrapped up the interview. I got a turn down voice mail a few days later. Note - I was looking to transition from one career path to Trader Joe's because their culture was appealing to me. Apparently a positive attitude isn't enough because supermarket skills are not possible to train unless you already have a lot of retail experience :-P

No real curve balls. Be ready to answer behavioral questions about going the extra mile, handling an unhappy customer, and why you want to work at Trader Joes.

Incredibly easy and to the point. Asked about resume, prior exp, why I'm a fit, all the basics. I ended up being accepted for the role but declined due to a better offer elsewhere.

Simple process but you are interviewed by two people at the same time and interviews arent specifically as scheduled so it may take a few minutes to an hour for the interview the start which happens to be very brief

This is a three step process once you have applied for the position. First is with the Captain and another Mate in the store. They have a list of questions (2 pages) of different scenarios that have you describe different situations. How you would handle or have handled different situations etc. If you interview well, next step is a zoom with another Captain of a different store (can be in another state) and those are further in depth about yourself and how the crew and others perceive you. Again more situational questions and how you handle them. The Captain you interviewed with will give their feedback and if all good you, you have a zoom interview with the regional who gets into more situation questions or what is your "why" at wanting to become a mate type of questions. The regional then discusses the interview with the store Captain and gives feedback and the red or green light on the promotion.
