      Produce Buyer/Specialist Interview

      Aug 29, 2015

      San Francisco, CA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Whole Foods Market (San Francisco, CA) in Jan 2014

      Interview

      Because this is a regional position, the regional associate produce coordinator will be part of the process as well as team and store leadership. It is fairly informal, but the questions asked are to the point. It is a panel interview with each of the panel asking questions that are related to your job or how you interact with others. I had already done my due diligence and met almost all the people who were in the room--this helped with my comfort level during the interview.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Basic interview questions. If you are familiar with buying and the importance of sales, margin, marketing and time management, you will do fine. Whole Foods is a team environment, so it is important that you come across as a team player. the Produce Buyer position can be very stressful and the daily time constraints dictate that you express the ability to budget your time and have copious amounts of grace under pressure.
