I applied in-person. I interviewed at Trader Joe's (Dana Point, CA) in Aug 2019
Interview
It was easy and relaxed they just ask basic questions about previous experiences. I enjoyed talking to the captain and learning about the position. They will ask how much you care about the customer experience its definitely customer service > the product.
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.
