Tell me about a time you noticed something wrong or off in your work area and you fixed it or flagged it before anyone told you to.

Technical

Walk me through what a typical store visit looks like for you, from the time you park to the time you leave.

How comfortable are you using an iPad or phone app to place orders and log information, and have you used anything like Salesforce before?

basic comfort with the ordering and reporting technology used daily on the job

Do you have a reliable personal vehicle and valid insurance, and are you comfortable driving to different store locations across the day?

logistical readiness since the role requires using a personal vehicle across multiple stores

a hard compliance requirement for accessing the military base facility

How would you go about noticing when a product is running low on shelf before it's actually out, especially for something with a lot of movement like Oreo or Ritz?

Say you show up to a store and the backroom is a mess, half your product isn't where it should be, and you're on a tight schedule to hit three more stores that day. What do you do?

how they prioritize and problem-solve under real time pressure without skipping stores or corners

This job involves lifting up to 25 pounds regularly and occasionally pushing or pulling over 50 pounds. Tell me about your experience with physical work like that.

If a store manager tells you they want your display moved to a spot that isn't part of your negotiated plan, how do you handle that conversation?

Your Tuesday through Saturday schedule is set by your route supervisor. Tell me about a time your work schedule didn't match your personal life and how you handled it.
