      Bakery Clerk Interview

      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Safeway (Ellicott City, MD) in Feb 2018

      Interview

      Very brief. The hiring manager spent a few minutes filling out paperwork before he asked a few fairly simple questions. He asked if I thought I could handle a fast-paced position, and if I had a problem with frequent interaction with customers. Then he moved on to the interview questions, and said that one or two word answers were fine. Finally, he shook my hand and told me when I could meet with the manager of the bakery department.

      The interview process was easy. I was signed up through Indeed. The Safeway employer asked a few questions. We talked a bit. The job was not a right fit for me. They only guarantee you 20 hours a week.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Safeway (Los Gatos, CA) in Jun 2024

      Interview

      They are lying about competitive pay and available positions. The posting for the night crew is just there to get people to apply and then tell them “oops it’s taken, but we got other spots” while the listing never goes down. The competitive pay claim is all over the baker and other listings, as well as the actual application process, but transitioning from a different grocery store as a trained professional i was told they can still only give me 17/hr and never heard of no competitive pay claims ever. Just walked right out the interview then and there, turned out i wasn’t the only one that day., save yourselves some time

      Question 1

      Will you be willing to ignore your expertise for some pennies and a spit in a cup?
