I did an online application first, then a director called me. She asked why I was interested in Safeway and the position. It was kind of unexpected as she called when it wasn't a good time for me, but I did my best to answer. After that, HR put me in touch with a group interview with the director and a manager for the next week. This one was more about personality and how I interact with others and communicate. About two weeks after that, I got a call offering me the internship. A few days later, I got the official offer and had to do a drug screening.

I first networked at a career fair and dropped off my resume. I received a call about 2-3 weeks later to set up a 30-minute prescreen phone interview. After that, I had a 15-minute conference call interview with people from the department I was assigned to. Finally, there was a panel interview with 3 managers from that specific department.
