"You'll be meeting with a District Recruiter for your hourly job, the fact they use a recruiter system is a bad omen and betrays that the work environment and management are hostile.If the recruiter tries to push you into a position/pay-grade you don't want, end the interview and move on to the next company, Kroger wants part-time slaves and they'll screw you over to get what they need. Their turnover rate is frightening, and too many new hires leave after only weeks on the job.If the recruiter puts money on the table, based on your experience you'll make 9.90/h part-time. The recruiter doesn't have the authority to give you that money and they will work you for weeks at minimum wage, and give you the runaround about wage adjustment."
