So I've been looking for a part time job for a while and my local Wegmans called me yesterday to set up an interview. I'm pretty stoked seeing that it's hard to get a job there and they work well with high school kids. Any NS'ers work at Wegmans and if so whats your job like? And hows the interview?

I'm a helping hands, Canandaigua wegmans.
Interview- It depends on who you get, I got a coordinater doing his first interview so it was pretty nerve racking for both of us. Make sure you dress nice, not like a suit r anything but no grapic tees or anything just a nice plain polo
The job is pretty sic, I work nights so I work for about 3 hours until 7 or so and then go chill in the break room for a bit, it depends where you work
Oh yea don't try and get a job as a cashier, firstly everyone tries to get it cause they think it's the best so you have a lot of competition, and secondly it sucks they cross trained me on it and I just immeaditely told them I hated it after my first week you have to suck ass to customers all day doing the same monotonous thing for however long your shift is I would reccomend starting on helping hands and then maybe working your way into other departments but that's just my idea

Oh yea helping hands and cashiers get paid the same I actually get paid more then most cashiers cause they give you a 25 cent raise every six months

I worked at the Ithaca wegman's for two years though high school as a cashier and the job itself sucks, I would recommend doing something other than cashier. The good thing about wegman's is that they are really good about working around your schedule and they don't get too pissed when you call in sick for a snowstorm.

I worked there for almost three years and I must say it sucked ass. They are super flexible though and tons of bitties work/shop there so I guess that's a plus. And for your interview, basically just be super friendly and polite, that's what Wegmans is all about.
