Trader Joe's SoHo Inching Closer to Opening? Job Fair Announced on Craigslist

In a sign that the long-awaited opening of Trader Joe's in SoHo is getting closer, the beloved supermarket chain is holding a job fair at its Spring Street location next week. 

In a Craigslist job ad posted last week, Trader Joe's announced it would be holding a job fair from Tuesday, April 17 through Thursday, April, from 10 a.m. through 8 p.m. at 233 Spring St. 

"Our crew members create a warm and friendly shopping experience in our stores. We answer questions, offer suggestions and ensure our customers know they are welcomed and cared for," the ad states. "We entertain customers and make grocery shopping an exciting adventure." 

Compensation is listed at $15 to $20 an hour based on qualifications and experience. 

Trader Joe's announced last year it would be opening locations in SoHo and on the Upper West Side in 2018, but hasn't specified dates. A spokeswoman for the company confirmed to News 4 last month they were on track to open within the year but couldn't provide further details.
