First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Wawa.
Operations Manager
First, you'll have a phone call with a recruiter. If they like you, you'll then have a Zoom meeting with the District Manager. If they're still interested, you'll shadow someone at a store for 30 mins-1 hour during a busy period.
- How do you manage your team?
- What's your approach to managing people?
- What salary are you looking for?
Shift Manager
Before I had the in-person interview, I did a phone interview. It was pretty standard, just to see if they liked me. Then I went in for the in-person interview and there were 4 managers interviewing me at the same time. It was pretty stressful with all of them asking questions and judging me! A district manager even showed up and watched while the other 4 managers kept asking questions. After I passed the second interview, they offered me the job and we talked about scheduling.
- What makes you want to work for Wawa?
- What makes you the best candidate for this position?
- How would you handle a specific customer situation?
Shift Manager
After applying, I got a call the very next day and an interview that same week. The manager asked me straightforward questions, mostly about my ability to collaborate with colleagues and adhere to guidelines. It was a really easy hiring process.
- Are you able to collaborate effectively with your team members?
- Do you have the ability to follow established rules and procedures?
