      Specialty Assistant Team Leader Interview

      Jan 31, 2016
      Anonymous employee
      The Woodlands, TX
      Accepted offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Whole Foods Market (The Woodlands, TX) in Dec 2015

      Interview

      Applied online, got a call to come in for a chat with the Store Team Leader. He went over a basic tour of the store, policies, and core values. Received another call later in the week to come in for a panel interview consisting of 5 people. They fired basic interview questions at me and it lasted about 30 minutes. Got a call the following day from the Team Lead who would make the final decision on the candidate that she would hire, and she asked about my references and the current status of my workplace, which led me to believe I would most likely get the offer. Which shortly after that I did. I accepted the offer and anxiously waited for my first day of work, after I did my background check of course, and then received another phone call from the Store Leader. They revoked their offer due to the fact that my reason for leaving my last employer, which I put on the application as "Disagreement" and nothing more, was fictitious and not truthful.

      Interview questions [2]

      Question 1

      How do you distinguish yourself as a worthy outer candidate versus someone who is applying from within the company?
      Answer question

      Question 2

      Say you get hired, how do you establish yourself as an authority figure? What if the staff doesn't take you seriously and they only respect what the Team Lead has to say?
      Answer question
