I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Safeway (Rockville, MD) in Mar 2019
Interview
Quick and easy
Could apply to several positions easily online
It really is a starting position, so they weren't trying to get only highly qualified people, it was a starting position and would give the job to anyone who applied
Pretty chill. They ask about employement history. Ask about my dream to become a bagger. Ask how I like to bag. They ask if you’re going to be the best bagger. They ask how I feel about self checkout and ai.
In-person interview: Asked about some of my achievements, or when I had to use problem solving/leadership. It was pretty straightforward. Appreciated that I came dressed up a little. Discussed what the job would entail for me, and gave me opportunity to ask questions too.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Something along the lines of describe a time you had to be a team-player (show teamwork skills).
The interview was brief and was not intimidating. The questions were organized and predictable. Overall seemed like a supportive environment, the expectations were clearly stated, and any questions were answered.
