I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Sprouts Farmers Market (San Francisco, CA)
Interview
After nearly 3 months of Interviews.....offered position of 3rd Manager. I have 20 + years experience in Store Management and Regional Management.
The recruiter had very poor follow up skills..... I think she forgot I was being recruited by her not the other way around.They acted as if they were doing me a favor.
Worked for a week before returning to my previous employer.
No Customer Service in the store I was assigned ....no sense of urgency to open registers when there are multiple customers in line.Poor Yelp scores for Customer service.Even Managers are named on Yelp by name for their lack of Customer Service...and they still work there.
Get this! They did not even provide me with a Uniform shirt as they did not have my size.....told me it takes a month to receive the 2 shirts they will supply in a whole year.
How do you work for a year with just 2 shirts????
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Sprouts Farmers Market in Feb 2023
Interview
Positive experience with the recruiters, my interview was lovely and I was really made to feel like they were genuinely interested in onboarding me. However, I felt extremely blindsided when I was not made an offer and was then countered with the suggestion that I should apply to be a cashier. For context, I have a Bachelor’s degree and 4+ years experience in retail/hospitality. Also, one of the managers I would have been working with talked poorly about my recruiter so that was definitely uncomfortable to listen to. I just wish there was more transparency during the interview process because it was made out to me that once I passed the interview, the rest was really just a formality to see whether or not it was something I wanted to do.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time when you had a problem with a co worker and how you resolved it

Interview
Interview was more of a phone screening where they describe the job functions, schedules, store structure, hours etc. I didn't really get asked anything in regards to my qualifications for the job, it was more the recruiter talking about the company and the job itself. Two days after I received a rejection email. It would have been nice to at least have a formal phone interview & a fair shot at this position.

Question 1
None really, recruiter just went over job description

Interview
Horrible process. Appointment with recruiter. Recruiter doesn’t have resume whilst on call and seemed to mix me up with another person as his questions were a) not relevant to my experience and b) he started calling me by a different name. Very unprofessional. Then he said he was “putting me through” but had no attachment to outcome up to individual Store Mgr to call me. If I do not hear within a week reach out to him. 2 days later I receive an email saying thanks for going through interview process with the team but not selected??!!! Horrible
