Likely interview questions for this role
Written from this job description, not a generic list. Each one notes what the interviewer is really checking.
About your past
You'd need to be available 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and weekends for about 30 to 35 hours. Does that work for you?
What they are checking: Whether they can commit to the schedule the store needs filled.
The posting says to stock about 50 cases an hour. How would you work fast without leaving a mess in the aisle?
What they are checking: Whether they can meet productivity standards while keeping aisles safe for customers.
You'll work in the freezer, sometimes near minus 10 degrees. How do you feel about that?
What they are checking: Whether they're realistic about the cold work the role requires.
Tell me about a job where you had to stay productive without someone watching over you.
What they are checking: Whether they're self-motivated, since stockers often work alone in the aisles.
What would you do
While stocking, you find a dented can and a leaking bottle. What do you do with them?
What they are checking: Whether they know to pull damaged product and sort it for credit instead of shelving it.
A customer asks where something is while you're in the middle of stocking. What do you do?
What they are checking: Whether they put customers ahead of tasks, ideally walking them to the item.
The shelf tag price doesn't match what's on the product. How do you handle it?
What they are checking: Whether they notice pricing errors and report them so customers aren't overcharged.
About the work
What does it mean to rotate product, and why does it matter in dairy?
What they are checking: Whether they understand first in, first out, which cuts waste and keeps expired food off the shelf.
How would you safely pull a loaded pallet with a hand jack through a busy store?
What they are checking: Whether they think about customer safety, clear paths and proper body mechanics.
What safety rules would you follow when using the cardboard baler or a box cutter?
What they are checking: Whether they take equipment safety seriously, since balers and cutters can cause serious injuries.
