About Hy-Vee

At Hy-Vee, we believe the shortest distance between two people is a smile. We're seeking people with a passion for customer service, a willingness to learn, and a commitment to being part of a team that strives to make our customers' lives easier, healthier and happier.

The Role and Why It's Important

Our Custodians play an essential role in making sure Hy-Vee stores are clean, safe, and welcoming for every customer who walks through the door. In this role, you'll be responsible for the total cleanliness and appearance of the store inside and out, keeping equipment maintained and ensuring a positive environment for customers and employees alike.

If you take pride in a job well done, enjoy staying active, and want to be part of a team that keeps things running smoothly, we'd love to have you on board.

What You'll Do

No two shifts are exactly the same, but here's what you can expect:

  • Provide prompt, friendly customer service by greeting customers with a smile, learning their names, and going out of your way to make every interaction a positive one
  • Maintain total store cleanliness and appearance inside and out, including sweeping, mopping, waxing, buffing, vacuuming, power washing, scrubbing, dusting, shampooing carpets, and sanitizing
  • Change ceiling lights and install or replace towel, paper, and soap dispensers as needed
  • Monitor plumbing, fixtures, coolers, and freezers and notify supervisors of any issues
  • Empty garbage and crush cardboard throughout your shift
  • Unclog drains as needed and perform routine equipment maintenance
  • Clean cooling systems and filters for the store
  • Order cleaning products as needed and audit invoices for correctness where applicable
  • Conduct quarterly inventory on products for costs and amounts used
  • Do price checks, return carts from the parking lot, and sack for customers as needed
  • Assist in other areas of the store as needed and take on special projects as assigned
  • Adhere to all Hy-Vee policies and individual store guidelines
  • Report to work when scheduled and on time

Your Skills

To be successful, you'll need to be able to:

  • Solve practical problems and interpret instructions across a variety of situations with limited standardization
  • Add, subtract, multiply, and divide whole numbers accurately
  • Understand and follow verbal or demonstrated directions and communicate supply needs orally or in writing
  • Work effectively as part of a team to keep the store clean and running smoothly

Education and Experience

  • Where applicable to the role: ability to safely use sharp knives and blades for food preparation

  • Where applicable to the role: ability to operate a delivery vehicle in accordance with applicable DOT standards
  • Perform repetitive standing, walking, reaching, and bending associated with order fulfillment, POS transactions, and cleaning/sanitation duties

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
