Remember to wear pants.

Beyond that it's hard to say what they will ask you....you just need to wing it.

I will almost guarantee you wont get the same hours as your friends, except on weekends sorry

[TigerMan]

They will probably ask you why you want to work at Shoprite, if you've had any previous jobs, what you've done at previous jobs (if you've had one), and they will probably make you schedule a drug test or give you one right there. And be sure to dress nicely and not like you just woke up, heh. Don't be too worried though about the interview if you are.

How do you know this? If you give them your schedule for the hours you can work for a certain week that are the same as some of your friends, you most likely will end up working the same times for at least part. It's not hard to get scheduled with friends really, well at least some of them.

Where are you?

Where in Jersey do you live?

Which Shoprite are you applying to: Zallie's, Brown's, Ravitz, etc..?

Odds are they are going to chek you for a pulse, drugs, cleanliness and then hire you! The Shoprites in SJ are desperate for help!

[Smegma]

the way you carry yourself and appear will be very crucial. I wouldnt try to practice or anticipate the questions, that could mess you up. Speak the truth, it will get you a long ways. Good luck

i dont think anyone *wants* to work at shoprite..and if i had a previous job i woulda stayed there..lol..everyone has to start someplace low and work their way to the top..so why not make your start someplace easy..

Make sure you tell em the voices in your head sometimes tell you to stay home and clean the guns so you won't be able to work on those days but you will call in.

Make sure and tell them you like to wear the paper bags as hats. They will think your witty and creative. It goes well with upper management.
