grocery clerk

Quadra Village Foods · Victoria, BC · $18.25 hourly

Verdict

This posting presents a legitimate grocery clerk role with detailed, realistic job responsibilities, standard wage, and a physical in-person application address. However, the employer identity is ambiguous—Quadra Village Foods appears to be either a subsidiary or former name of Fairway Markets, with no independent web presence—creating moderate uncertainty about legitimacy. The in-person application method and lack of generic email concerns mitigate fraud risk, but the unclear corporate identity and low web confidence prevent a fully clean assessment.

Employer identity ambiguity and lack of independent web presence+12
Quadra Village Foods has no dedicated website. The address (2635 Quadra St) is also listed as a Fairway Markets location, suggesting the employer may be a subsidiary, former name, or directory listing error. Low web confidence (0.4) indicates unclear corporate identity.
No generic email domain or upfront credential requests-5
Posting specifies in-person application only; no email contact provided. No requests for ID, banking information, or payment upfront.
Reasonable salary and standard employment terms-8
$18.25/hour is market-appropriate for grocery clerk roles in BC. Full-time, permanent position with flexible scheduling options (shift, early morning, evening, weekend) is typical for retail.
In-person application at physical business address-10
Posting directs applicants to apply in person at 2635 Quadra Street, Victoria, BC—a verified business address. No request for mailed resumes, upfront fees, or personal information before interview.
Detailed job description with realistic tasks and conditions-15
Comprehensive list of grocery clerk duties (stocking, customer service, cash register, cleaning), specific work environment details (air-conditioned, cold/refrigerated, dusty), and realistic physical demands (up to 23 kg lifting, standing for extended periods). Matches standard grocery store roles.
