I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Whole Foods Market (Mandeville, LA) in Oct 2018
Interview
Three managers sat down with me in the cafe area. It was a very relaxed and even homie setting. This was nice because I always get a little nervous before interviews. The asked me some questions, mostly about my previous jobs/experience working as a barista. Then after about 15 minutes they went to the back to talk alone then came back and offered me the job.

I interviewed at Whole Foods Market (Los Angeles, CA)
Interview
On the phone they talked to me and then they asked me some questions and then I answered them badly and then they hired me that same day. And I guess they needed people because I was brought on seasonally but I stayed and they didn't tell me to stay.
