First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Sendik's.
Graphic Designer
The interview process was quite brief. It started with a fast phone call with HR, followed by a 30-minute in-person meeting with the department manager. I felt like the questions were a bit repetitive, and the interviewer didn't seem very engaged. The overall atmosphere was just a bit strange.
- Describe your design process.
- Are you comfortable working in an open office?
Cashier
I applied online to be a cashier at the Franklin location. About ten days later, HR texted me about a job fair at the store, but I couldn't make it. So, they set up a phone interview for me instead. It was pretty straightforward, but they did ask some weird questions, like rating my desire to work there on a scale of 1 to 10. It went okay, and they booked me for an in-person interview a few days after. When I got to the store, the interviewer seemed totally unprepared, like he didn't even know I was coming. He spent like 4-5 minutes on his computer looking up my info from HR. He wanted to put me in bakery or deli and was bummed I couldn't work evenings since the job posting said the hours were 7 am to 3 pm. But, he did want to schedule me for orientation. I also saw two employee resignation forms on his desk, which was kinda funny during the interview.
- How have you assisted colleagues in your present employment?
- How much do you want to work at Sendiks, on a scale from 1 to 10?
Cake Decorator
The phone interview went well, and I was actually offered a higher position than the one I applied for. However, the in-person interview felt disorganized. During the initial phone call, the bakery manager mentioned we'd decorate a cake together to showcase my skills. When I arrived for the in-person interview, the manager met me briefly and then had me wait at the front for about 10-15 minutes. Afterward, he took me to a desk area where people were constantly passing by. Ultimately, they decided not to offer me any of the positions I applied for, nor the one HR had proposed. Instead, they wanted to place me in a completely different role, not in the bakery, with different working hours, which I declined.
- Can you tell me about the cakes you've baked and decorated?
Customer Service Representative
You'll submit your application on the website. Someone from the main office will check it out and give you a call to set up a phone interview. Usually, after the phone chat, they'll schedule you for an in-person interview at the store. When you get to the store interview, they might tell you about other job openings that you could be a good fit for, even if they're different from the one you applied for.
- Can you tell us about yourself?
- What made you apply for this position?
- What would you say are your best qualities and areas for improvement?
