Question

Kate Swindlehurst · Accepted Answer

You have to be at least 15 years old to work at Market Basket. Positions that are available for the 15 years old are sackers, cashiers, and stockers. Typically, these positions do not require any experience before being hired.

While there are positions available at Market Basket at 16, you cannot work every position at that age. To work in the bakery or behind meat counters, you need to be at least 18 years old. Along with that, positions in management require you to be at least 18 years old as well as have experience in retail and working in grocery.

Market Basket lists its available positions online. You can search for positions that fit you, your age, and your skill level. Then, you can apply for what works best for you. You may also inquire within stores for open positions, although they may not always be hiring, and typically prefer the process to be completed online.
