      Assistant Manager Interview

      8 Oct 2015
      Anonymous employee
      San Jose, CA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Smart & Final (San Jose, CA) in Aug 2011

      Interview

      I was working at another grocery store but a friend had recommended I try this company out as it appeared to have great advancement potential. I applied in person and filled out my application. I received a call back a few days later and came in for an interview a day or two after that. I was asked to return for a second interview a few days after that. That was a much quicker interview and I was officially offered the position. The hiring process was fairly quick. A drug test was mandatory, but with all the newhire paperwork and background checks etc, I started roughly two weeks later after giving notice to my previous employer.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      I was asked about my work history and duties performed.
