I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Meijer in Sep 2010
Interview
I applied online and was offered first a phone interview, a second interview with a manager, and finally an interview with the store director. Talking to them made me feel like just another future red polo. I was "myself" the entire interview, but it felt like the interviewers were all reading a script. I guess with a super everything-you'll-ever-need-ever store like Meijer, they don't have the time or patience to be personable with their prospective employees... However because of that, I never felt comfortale working with them.
Anyway, if you're capable of breathing on your own, able to scan cans and memorize a couple of numbers. You're good to go.
Very easy interview they asked about your past experience and it’s a phone call first and then in person. Once you pass both of the process you interview with the store director sometimes or you just get hired in.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Set me a time how you dealt with a difficult customer
Scheduled phone interview after application was submitted. Was scheduled over email. Interview was short maybe 10 minutes at most. Basic questions to assess work ethic and experience. Offer was provided via email after the interview.
Met with a department manager. Not the person who was scheduled to do the interview. Most questions were about my availability and work history at a previous employer for a cashier job
