King Soopers Interview Questions & Reviews

Interview Details The interview is pretty standard, its also when most of the lies occur. They ask a lot of "Tell me about a time when..." questions, and then proceed to tell you about how great it is to work there and so on. They tell you that you can get days off if you request them in advance and that if you are in school that you'll only be scheduled when you tell them you are available. Neither of these things are true.

Negotiation Details – Do you accept? Yes/No, no real negotiation

Interview Details I was impressed with the interview. They asked me a lot of questions, went into depth about my skills, people skills, everything. More than any other interview has done. The total interview lasted about an hour.

Negotiation Details – Was not able to negotiate anything.

Interview Details Was called by Store secretary after submitting resume online. Was told that they are looking for a Shopper & Delivery Driver and no previous experience was fine. Was told that the job is fast paced & requires that you can lift a min of 50 lbs. The shopper part requires that you are able to manage 2 to 5 or more grocery lists of the Home Shop customers, be accurate in getting exactly what they want, to know where that product is located in the store, & complete each order as quickly as possible. The delivery part requires that you drive a delivery truck & deliver the ordered products to the customers, process payment with a handheld computer, have good knowledge of the city streets or be able to use GPS, & have a good driving record.

Negotiation Details – No negotiation, just do you want it?

Interview Details Interview with store secretary

Negotiation Details – none

Interview Details Filled out the online application then called in a few days later set up the interview, took the drug test and started training, within one week.

Negotiation Details – None

Interview Details The longest process was the online application. The online application is filled with the personality test and also asks questions about your own background and work history.
I was then called about a week later where I was set up for an interview.
I attended the interview in business casual.
I explained my work history. The interviewer asked what I thought Customer Service was, and after giving some guesses of my own, she told me it was basically just smiling and helping the customer with what they needed. I then had to confirm that I would be available any hours of the week before she would turn in the application. I then took a drug test and was told that in two days the results of the drug test and background check should be in and that I would get an answer then. Three days later I received a call saying that I had to come in and take a computer training course and that I would pick up my uniform then. I was never officially told that I got the job, but that was made apparent when I was handed my uniform.

She then asked if there was any upcoming vacations that were coming up for me.

My Advice:
Just be yourself. They aren't trying to trick you with any trick questions. Answer with what you think is the correct answer.

Negotiation Details – Really wasn't a negotiating process for me. All this is done after your hired. If you need to negotiate time off, you need to talk to the Head Clerk that does the scheduling.

Interview Details quick 5 min interview

Interview Details I submitted an application via King Soopers web site, and called the store i was trying to get hired at every other day. I talked to the service manager about 3 times, and the store managers secratery (person in charge of interveiws) 2 times. it took about 4 days to get the interveiw, i had to submit to a re-hire check which took several days, and was finnaly called in a week later for the full interview and drug test.

Negotiation Details – DO NOT try to negotiate any terms, this company is extreamly structured and does not like to apply to your terms. once you get the drug test, your hired.
