I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Safeway (Denver, CO) in May 2015
Interview
I was called 2 days after applying online and was told they needed to interview people that day, so I only had a couple hours notice. I arrived to interview and waited probably 30 minutes past the set time. I was then taken into the office and the interviewer asked me several questions from a form, which she filled out while I answered. At the end, I was told the store manager was not present and so she would put me first in line for whichever position they needed most and get back to me within a couple days.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
If a customer was buying a birthday cake, which 3 other items would I suggest they also purchase?
The interview process was easy. I was signed up through Indeed. The Safeway employer asked a few questions. We talked a bit. The job was not a right fit for me. They only guarantee you 20 hours a week.

Question 1
They asked if I was willing to come in at 1 in the morning.
It was an easy and quick interview. We talked about previous experience and why I would want to work there. I was interviewed by the store manager right when I applied.

I applied online. I interviewed at Safeway (Los Gatos, CA) in Jun 2024
Interview
They are lying about competitive pay and available positions. The posting for the night crew is just there to get people to apply and then tell them “oops it’s taken, but we got other spots” while the listing never goes down. The competitive pay claim is all over the baker and other listings, as well as the actual application process, but transitioning from a different grocery store as a trained professional i was told they can still only give me 17/hr and never heard of no competitive pay claims ever. Just walked right out the interview then and there, turned out i wasn’t the only one that day., save yourselves some time

Question 1
Will you be willing to ignore your expertise for some pennies and a spit in a cup?
