Interviewed Feb 2012 in Portland, OR (took a day)
I was called on a Sunday at 10AM and asked if I could come in later that afternoon. I agreed and came in and we sat in the eating area of the deli at the Pearl location of Safeway. The questions were basic and she said to make them brief, even though it was almost not possible to keep them brief. She said I was over qualified and that if was hired in the deli that I would not have a chance to move up, which was okay with me this was not a career for me. I called back 2 days later to check in and she said that they chose another candidate.

Interviewed Apr 2010 in San Ramon, CA (took a day)
Met HR rep at Career Fair. Told to post position online. Called in to interview and asked to bring social security card. Standard questions why do you want to work here, will you have any limitations, etc.
Once hired you have to attend a 4 hour Service and Safety Class and then complete an online training course. I found the training to be interesting and helpful in preparing you to perform for your job. You have to memorize scripts that have to be repeated to every customer. Your performance in repeating this process with every customer is measured by Safeway who hires secret shoppers to shop and evaluate your performance as such.
