Sam's Club Interview?

I'm getting really frustrated getting interviewed by places like Target and Sam's Club and drawing a blank mind because they ask so many questions regarding how you work as a team and bla bla bla. I look for interview examples on the web, and they're no where near what I get asked when interviewing for these entry level positions. They might as some of those questions, but most want you to describe a situation where you worked as a team, made a team a friendlier environment. These questions are hard to answer and I really need to see an example more like interview questions you get at Sam's Club and not for being the Vice President of a company.

    When your being asked these questions. look at it from the perspective of an owner.

    How would you want these teams to function?

    What would you do to encourage corroboration between employees?

    What would you do to reduce costs and improve profit?

    Their looking for employees that think beyond the time clock. It's easy to hire an employee, but it's hard to find a team member.

    For example: Have you ever noticed a customer issue in your work area? If you did, what did you do, or your team do to resolve it?

    Answer: I noticed that some senior citizens were having a hard time getting shopping carts from the stack. I brought this up to my team leader and we decided to have someone place loose carts at the door, to make it easier for our customers.

    Those are the kind of examples their looking for.
