I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Kroger (Fort Worth, TX) in Aug 2012
Interview
The interview was a sales pitch, the job itself was NOT discussed, pay grade and wage quotes were.
I applied for Full-time and the District Recruiter was trying to push part-time pay, she quoted high hourly rates which she did not have the authority to apply (I learned this only after accepting the job.)
The orientation was not carried out at my assigned story and for two days I did not know who my supervisors were and after reporting my store I learned that my salaried superiors were not very friendly folks and that my assigned store is showing signs of failure.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
No questions about my work ethic, work history, or thought processes were asked.
The district recruiter was very eager to bring me right on board (always a bad sign)
Easy and simple sit-down interview, mostly based questions establishing who you are and your work ethic. Also how well you handle different and difficult situations at work or everyday life.
Straight forward and pleasant I wish all interviews were like this. They were thorough in explaining the job duties and responsibilities what the current situation was like and their expectations going forward
Good Job, Good People. Can build great relationships and wasn’t too hard. Pay was decent and schedule was flexible. Great for anyone looking for something that can be stable. Weekly Pay and can get vacations after first year.
