The Age Game: Who Makes the Cut?
Here's the skinny: HEB isn't ageist, but they do have some minimum age requirements depending on the role.
16 and Ready to Roll: If you're 16 and itching to join the HEB family, you're in luck! You can apply for positions like Curbie (those awesome folks who bring your groceries out to your car), Shopper (fulfilling online orders, basically grocery ninja!), Bagger (the friendly face who helps you wrangle your purchases), and Checker (scanning your goodies with a smile).
Gotta Be 18 for This: For some of the other HEB gigs, you'll need to have celebrated at least 18 birthdays. This applies to roles like Night Stocker (keeping those shelves magically full!), Customer Service Representative (greeting customers and keeping departments shipshape), and many more.
Remember: These are the minimums. If you're older and have that grocery know-how, HEB wants to hear from you too!
Age is Just the Beginning, Partner!
While age gets your foot in the door, what HEB truly values is your enthusiasm, willingness to learn, and stellar customer service skills. So, if you're a people person who thrives in a fast-paced environment, HEB could be your perfect match!
QuickTip: Don’t skim too fast — depth matters.
Here are some bonus points to make your application shine:
- Can you hustle? HEB needs folks who can keep up with the demands of a busy grocery store.
- Are you a team player? Working at HEB is all about collaboration!
- Do you have a smile that's contagious? Spreading cheer is a key ingredient at HEB.
