Interviewed Mar 2012 in Markham, ON (Canada) (took 1 week)
I first got a call from Walmart and they asked me a few questions on the phone then told me to go in for an real interview. When I went in (which was the next day), it was a group interview. We each had to pretty much introduce ourselves and then they gave us an item to sell on the spot to them. We got into pairs and one pretend to be a customer looking for that specific product and another one as a sales associate.
After that "pretend game", they had 7 different department manager come in to have a group interview with us. We each get around 1 minute with each of the manager and they interview all of us asking different types of questions (some questions were repeated). Some managers were really nice, but there was one that was really mean and discouraging. It seemed like she was trying to make the interview hard for us.
The interview took around one hour, but then it took them a week to call back and it takes 2.5 weeks for the background check! Then finally they called me today asking me to go in for the orientation. It took a total of one month to finish the whole process!

Interviewed Aug 2011 in Scarborough, ON (Canada) (took 1 week)
Applied online on the company's website, completed application test which consisted of around 80 questions. Got a call after few weeks from a department manager for a phone interview where they asked questions like your current job, availability and five to six behaviour/situation based questions and then was asked to go in for a group interview at the end of the call. Group interview was with 5 other candidates. The first section is the introduction where we had to introduce the person to our right so we were given some time to get information about the person we were going to introduce, after this we were asked to team up with another person and each group were given an item and we had to come up with the information/characteristics of the product that will help sell them to the prospective buyer(they are looking for communication skills so no need to exaggerate anything). After this, we were asked to continue with the same group and were given scenarios that we might encounter as an employee and were asked to discuss about the matter/situation and what we would do if we were in such situation. The next round is the speed dating part where we were asked to sit face to face with a dept manager(so six managers vs. six candidates) and were asked one question that we have 90secs to answer, after 90 secs we move to the right and this continue till we complete a full circle and then one more round of those(total 12 questions). This marked the end of the group interview and we were told that we would be contacted within 2 business days about the outcome. Got the call next day and was asked to go in with 2 pieces of ID, went in and gave two pieces of ID and filled in and signed a form for the background check and was asked to give 3 references, asked to go to a separate room to talk to the store Manager about the job offer and salary negotiation. was told to go back for orientation and training. Not all candidates were selected at the end of the whole process, it's really important to perform well in the group interview and they respect individuality so just be yourself.

Interviewed Sep 2009 in Brampton, ON (Canada) (took a day)
I walked into the store and saw a manager. I told the manager I was looking for a job and that I was interested in working for Wal-Mart. He took down my number and called me an hour later for an interview. After the first, there were two more with two other managers. Few days later I got a call asking if I was still interested in working for Walmart and I accepted.

Interviewed Nov 2008 in Toronto, ON (Canada) (took a day)
The interview process was fairly simple. They ask you some behavioural questions about situations involving problem scenerios. The whole point is to determine if you are a team player and how well you deal under pressure. They ask you a lot of other typical questions like why do you want to work here? what are the hours you are looking to work. If you are fairly confident and can solve problems easily it is easy to get this job

Negotiation Details
There is no negotiations in price you get minimum wage and if you want a higher salary you'd have to have a lot of experience to show for it, but even then they would just higher someone else who will take lower pay to do the job. So my advice is to just take the job otherwise you could lose it.
