I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Trader Joe's (Orange, CA) in Aug 2014
Interview
Great! Two step interview, one with two mates and the other with the Captain and the scheduler of the store. The questions they asked were directed towards mostly my personality and the things I had written down on my resume. Other than that the process was rather simple and they were very kind through the entire interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
