I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Trader Joe's (West Bloomfield, MI) in May 2015
Interview
Brief and relaxed. I felt like I was having a conversation with a friend. Not like I was on the hot seat! It was a pre-scan to see have I have the right personality.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why do you want to work at TJ? What is your favorite food at TJ's?
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.
I had 3 separate interviews. 1 was over the phone. 2 were in person. I never heard anything after the third interview. I called the store about a week later and they let me know they didn’t actually have any available positions. Really felt like they wasted my time.
