I applied in-person. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Vons (Hacienda Heights, Los Angeles, CA) in May 2010
Interview
The interviewer was very pleased with me and had known a little about me since he asked me several questions over the phone. I told him I was recommended by a previous employer at Vons and I told him I was excited to have the opportunity to work at Vons and attempt to learn useful skills and work in a positive environment.
I applied online. I interviewed at Vons (Camarillo, CA)
Interview
I had applied at Vons multiple times over a few years before I was called for an interview. When I went for the interview I waited in the break room until the manager called me into his office. The only questions he asked me were very straight forward and mostly yes or no questions about my background and about the job. Most of the interview was actually him giving me information about the job. He gave me a choice between being a bagger and an overnight stocker. Anyone who works during the day needs to have a short, conservative haircut, so that's why I said I wanted the overnight job. I told the manager that I chose the overnight job because I didn't want to cut my hair short and that might be why they didn't hire me.
I applied in-person. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Vons (Las Vegas, NV)
Interview
You apply online, but I suggest seeing the store manager first and introducing yourself. They will tell you to just apply online, but you get them to see you. Then they have you interview with the person in-charge of that. Then you interview with the store manager. If interested, they drug test you, then have you get started.
