After applying online, I was invited to call the store and schedule an in-person interview with a Mate (mid-level manager.) He met me in the store and the interview was held outside at a picnic table at the back of the store near the dumpsters. I would describe the conversation as business casual - not overly serious or intense, but not silly or too informal. The Mate who interviewed me was kind and followed a standard interview format that he had printed out along with my application materials. At the end of the interview he scheduled me for a 2nd interview a couple of days later with a different Mate than the first interview. I participated and that interview was similar to the first. I did not hear back from this store either with an offer or update. This isn't uncommon in hiring unfortunately, but it was a bit disappointing since TJ's has such a great focus on customer service.
