I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Trader Joe's (Los Angeles, CA) in Feb 2022
Interview
This interview was only on the phone, there was a job posting and a phone interview but hiring manager verified it was a mistake, that their location isn't hiring anyone at the moment.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I asked the hiring manager if we could schedule an in-person interview, however this location is not currently hiring.
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.
The interview process was absolutely wonderful! I didn't feel stressed or nervous and it felt like I was just chatting with a friend! Trader Joes is a great company and the interview was great.
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.
