      Grocery Checker Interview

      9 Feb 2016
      Anonymous employee
      Sunnyvale, CA
      Accepted offer
      Neutral experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Safeway (Sunnyvale, CA)

      Interview

      The interview for checker was a breeze. I originally applied to work at the Starbucks, but they had no room as they were overstuffed in that front. The manager or any one really in a somewhat high position, invites you in one on one. They ask you a few simple interview questions and then make you take a saliva drug test. There's some paperwork and lots of signing. Honestly, if you know interview basics, seem like you are interested in working and dress fairly nicely for the interview you've got the job. And even if you don't get hired for the job you came in for, often times they'll offer you a job for another position that you are more qualified for (or just where they need people).

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. I interviewed at Safeway (Cheney, WA) in July 2018

      Interview

      My availability was the most important aspect of the job and being time. Understanding the customers and learning to help others when needed. Always go to the manger if you don’t know what your doing.
