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.
Fun and laid back did not feel like I was being interrogated . Did a short kind of interview when I turned in my application then got called back for a more formal interview
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Just basic questions about why i wanted the job and my knowledge of the product
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.
