I recently moved to Arkansas and put in an application for a job at my local kroger. I got a call the day after i submited my application and went for my interview. Something that came up after i submitted the drug test was what year i graduated high school. The only problem is i did not finish high school, but for fear of not getting hired i had written that i did in fact complete high school.
Is the background check going to go over my education history? Did i just shoot myself in the foot by doing this, because i really need a second job. I'm only applying for courtesy clerk.
I work at an Arkansas Kroger. Other than the drug test and/or criminal background checks, Kroger only really cares if you are a warm body that will show up on time; that you can read reasonably well enough to follow the instructions on all the key refailing charts, signs and tags; and that you are naive enough to believe that management (store level and corporate) know what they're doing. Pass these tests and you too could become a manager! Oh, and in case you've re-located to Arkansas from somewhere not in the surrounding states, you might want to take a look at the DVD "Paradise Lost: The Robin Hood Hills Murders". This will give you a good idea of the type of customers you can expect to interact with. Good Luck!!
um dude... you r answering a 2 year old post. i'm sure the high school drop out still works at kroger and is now a co manager soon to be store manager.
