      Crew Member Interview

      Jan 15, 2018
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      New York, NY
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Trader Joe's (New York, NY) in Dec 2017

      Interview

      Horrible experience, I interview at a hiring fair at Chelsea store in New York,NY. I came on time and when I arrive it was pack and they already started the interviews, which for me is not fair, otherwise I would had came before. Their were at least 4 Managers and out the 4 of them 3 did thorough interviews to the applicants and 1 did 2 minute interviews, the 2 minute manager was the one I got, this man acted like he did not care about me or my answers after making me feel bad he tells me their called in about a week. They never did, two weeks later i get a rejection about too many applicants and i will not be interview, this makes no sense, i was early, and had open availability and answer all my questions right, but i think the 2 minute manager was done with me from the start. This hurts, I really wanted this job, and they took forever to contact me from the fair, I could had spend that time doing other interviews but really thought I had a chance with Trader Joes. A huge waste of time, If you read other reviews they also was not hire at this location, I advise to not apply for this location for it will be useless. I won't ever apply to this overrated grocery store again.

      I interviewed at Trader Joe's (Boston, MA)

      Interview

      It's two to three interviews, the final with the Captain (or highest manager) of the store. The interviews are largely to get to know your personality and how well you would do at customer service.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Trader Joe's (Atlanta, GA)

      Interview

      Very chill, asked things a lot of job interviews don't, more personal down to earth questions. Made me feel very comfortable. Professional but also cool vibes from everyone who interviewed me. Went to one interview with mates and another with the captain.
