I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Trader Joe's (Millburn, NJ) in Jan 2017
Interview
Had a pre screening when dropping off your applications. Asked why you want to work there and what your favorite products are. If they liked you they call you back for the first interview and then a second one with the captain.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What would you do in situations regarding your coworkers
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.
Very chill, asked things a lot of job interviews don't, more personal down to earth questions. Made me feel very comfortable. Professional but also cool vibes from everyone who interviewed me. Went to one interview with mates and another with the captain.
