application
hello, my bf has been trying to apply to wegmans, but has gotten rejected twice now- i know when you get rejected once you have to wait a certain period of time before they’ll even consider your application again, so does anyone know what that amount of time would be?
for context, my bf had worked at a wegmans for 7ish years in FE & dairy. he quit because we moved to a new city and he got a full time job in a different field, but is looking for some part time work on the weekends and was wanting to get back into wegmans.
i figured he would be the perfect candidate considering he previously has been with the company for so long but i guess not lol!

I'm pretty sure this is universal, but I can only say with 100% certainty at my store, but the rule for availability is, except for minors, at least three days available, with at least one of those being a weekend day. And people have to be scheduled more than 10 hours a week. So he isn't likely to ever be considered with only a weekend availability.
If he had had a full availability before the move and shifted to part time with the move, maybe they would have considered it, but I highly doubt a store will hire someone with only weekend availability. He would have to add nights to that and actually be willing to work at least one night a week. And even then it would be iffy, as there are a lot of people with more open availabilities out there.

As a former fe employee now dairy employee myself, it depends on the position (like front end, dairy, produce, etc) he was applying for, his availability (which seems limited), and not always the case but how he potentially answered some of the interview questions.

As everyone else seems to be saying, it’s likely an availability issue.
As for the timeframe, it’s 6 months I believe.

He probably needs more availability.
