As the work continues on the new Silverdale Trader Joe’s, the company is now accepting applications for employment at the boutique grocery store.

The grocery store will open later this year — the company has not released a date or month — at 9991 Mickelberry Road Northwest, formerly a Circuit City.

At sign at the site said job applications are being accepted on site from 9 a.m. to noon and 2 to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.  However, on Tuesday, a sign at the site said the recruiters would be away for the day.
