Interviewed Dec 2011 (took a day)
Was interviewed by both the store manager and the assistant manager - was a fairly easy process they just read off of a printed out document and took notes to compare to what other people answered. Got offered the job the next day. If you are applying for PIC just know the store and know the job and what would be expected of you and you're good!

Interviewed Nov 2011 in Vancouver, BC (Canada) (took 1 week)
I applied cashier at safeway job fair. It's one to one interview, maily asked about availability and self-introduce. I received a call back, after a week I went to second one to one interview, asked about availability again (very important to retail business). If anyone wants to apply a job in retail, flexible schedule will be preferred.

Interviewed Jun 2009 (took a day)
There was a skills test (very basic) and a personality test. The personality test is a joke to weed out vilent people who aren't smart enough to answer questions correctly. There was also a drug test (urine) at a different facility. Finally, a 1v1 interview where they tried to convince me it was really hard work to scare off the lazy people I presume.
