I applied online and then received a text setting up an interview with an assistant store director. In the interview it was pretty typical questions, and I received the offer on the spot.

Question 1
What’s a time you went above and beyond at a previous job
I applied online. I interviewed at Meijer (Evergreen Park, IL) in Dec 2015
Interview
I had applied for a job at Meijer and the store manager called me in for an interview. I met with him for about 30 minutes in asking me a series of questions about my background. Afterwards he stated we didn't have any open positions at the moment but he would get back to me in a few weeks. About three weeks later he called me back and offer me a position in the produce department. In having no experience in this industry he took a chance on me because he saw potential in what I had to offer. I started as part time and in three months move up to a full time position because of the effort I had demonstrated which was noticed by several supervisors. Although I only worked there for six months because I had accepted another position with more pay it was a great learning experience. I had enjoyed the time I was there and the people that I got to work with.
Great. Interviewed with the hiring manager for the store and the department head for the store. Nice people. Had a great conversation and explained the role responsibilities and hours. Overall great experience.
The interview was a face-to-face Question and answer session with the store director after application process. Called in after an application to an informal team meeting room. Manager of the department was also present. Manager presence is optional
