I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Fred Meyer (Redmond, WA) in Feb 2017
Interview
First I got a call from their recruiting agency to ask sone basic personality testing questions. Then I got invited for an in person interview which went great. They were very friendly and polite. I felt more like I was having a conversation than giving an interview. Next I got scheduled for a background check and drug screen and then had orientation shortly after that.

Question 1
What are your hobbies and how will they contribute to your success here?
Very easy but professional. They ask you about ways to deal with customer complaints, how you would connect with customers, if you were okay doing certain tasks, if you have good hand mobility to write on cakes.
I had a quick interview with the Bakery manager. Straight forward answers about why I wanted to join the bakery team. The questions were rather easy, and it was conversational.
