I applied online. I interviewed at Weis Markets (Frederick, MD) in Aug 2017
Interview
Step 1: One completes an online questionnaire that seems mostly about whether or not you think it's ok to steal from the company (skim cash, take office supplies, etc). You also complete a fill-in-the-blank sort of resume.
Step 2: 24-72 hours later, you should expect to receive a call from the manager responsible for the area for which you applied. you'll schedule a face-to-face. The interviewer will ask more questions and let you know what the next steps are in the hiring process. You will be expected to work holidays (closed Christmas Day only). You'll start at minimum wage.
Step 3: Go for a drug test at a local lab (urine test)
Step 4: 24-72 hours later you'll be called back to schedule a sit down to go over paperwork, scheduling, get uniform items (must provide own black pants and shoes) and official pay offer.

Question 1
How would you handle a disagreement with management?
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Weis Markets (Martinsburg, WV) in Nov 2022
Interview
Quick and simple, the managers were really friendly. The onboarding training wasn't too difficult to learn either, and my coworkers have been a blast to work with. The shadowing was rather simple, and it's been easy to ask questions.

Question 1
How would you handle a customer that is upset about a price or product?
I applied online. I interviewed at Weis Markets in Jul 2022
Interview
Straightforward, questions focused on customer service experience and hypotheticals on how you would handle a situation. Schedule flexiblity/availability was also discussed from both sides. Interviewed with front end store manager.
Very simple and straightforward, will ask about your background, interests, etc. Be polite, respectful and seem eager for the job and you will almost definitely get it. If you don't have prior experience in retail that is fine. Just say your are excited for the opportunity and that you like working with people.
