I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Trader Joe's (Stamford, CT) in Jul 2017
Interview
interview was very laid back. Was asked why i wanted to work there, what was my favorite product they carried and my interests. Depending on who interviews you whether its the mate or the captain, i usually found it enjoyable.
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.
