Two interviewers talked with me. They asked me standard questions like why Whole Foods Market. I had to confirm my availability and talked a bit about myself. It was pretty easy. They said I got the job, but then after I asked about onboarding, they ghosted me.

I got a phone call after applying online where they asked me to name three kinds of apples, give a summary of my experience, and say why I wanted the job. Then they set an interview time. Since the store wasn't open yet, we had interviews in a rented business space, one by one. My first interview was with my direct boss and their boss. They asked standard questions and one personal one. The second interview was super short with the store manager. They asked a lot of the same questions again and then we just had a casual chat about the store. Lastly, they asked a few questions about my work ability, I signed some papers, and I got the job.

I applied online and then got a call pretty quickly asking some basic questions about why I wanted to work there and what made me a good fit, and they also mentioned the pay. A couple weeks later, I had a group interview with about 30 other people. It was a really different process. Mostly it was like a round table discussion. We all answered some questions first, then split into tables for specific departments I was interested in (Customer Service/Front End and Grocery). We answered more questions in smaller groups, did an activity together, and then the leaders wrapped it up. I got an offer from the Customer Service Team Leader within a few days. The whole thing took about two weeks and was pretty smooth.
