I applied online. I interviewed at Trader Joe's (Ashburn, VA)
Interview
It was very casual and laid back. The interviewer had a packet of questions that they would choose from, and it felt like a normal conversation. They asked for another interview and would work with your schedule.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How did you handle a conflict when you worked with a team?
Applied online and had one in person interview with the captain. It lasted maybe 10 minutes. Got a call a week or so later that I got the job. Very fast process.
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.
