I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Whole Foods Market (Edgewater, NJ) in May 2012
Interview
Got called in for first interview and spoke with 2 different managers briefly. Mostly about prior work experiences. They also asked if i was attending school because they are willing to work around your schedule. After the first interview i was called back for a second brief interview and this time i spoke with the department team leader. She asked mostly questions to try to see how i would handle customers when under pressure (busy hours). Mostly simple questions like what i would do if a customer needs a product that is out of stock. I answered i would special order it for her and take her information down to reach her when its available.

Interview
Very easy process. One of the better experiences I’ve had. A few standard interview questions were ask, but the rest was conversational for most part. Wasn’t stressful or anything like that.

A simple process of an initial screening over the phone with basic questions such as "when you can start" and "how do you plan on getting to and from work" and then meeting the supervisor in person to be interviewed with standard customer service role questions.
