Interviewed Dec 2011 in Blair, NE (took 1 week)
I applied online and they called me a couple days later to set up an interview. The interview was fairly easygoing and they asked average interview questions. I had to take an assessment online before the interview then another one once I got because they wanted me to try for a supervisory position. I passed it and they asked about my availability and told me they would call me in about a week or two. They called me a week and a half later and made a meeting for a job offer.

Interviewed Dec 2011 in Excelsior Springs, MO (took a day)
I put the position on my "dream sheet" at the request of a supervisor who wanted me in the position. When management told me I was up for the position, they asked me some standard attitudinally based questions, then they offered me the position. Very streamlined process, not too different from my initial hire interview a year and a half ago. More questions then since they did not have any performance reports on file for me then. Now they see what they have and want more, I guess.

Interviewed Jun 2011 in Bentonville, AR (took a day)
Their process is pretty bad when interviewing for a corporate position. 1st step was a phone interview (pretty standard). Then they offer to fly you out and put you in a hotel. They flew me out on a 7 a.m flight (mind you, you have to be at airport at least an hour in advance and it takes an hour for me to get to airport from my home) So, basically I had to be up at 3 a.m to make this interview. They reserve a rent-a-car for you (nice) but you have to drive in to town, check in to hotel then interview immediately afterward. I had asked to be flown out the day before but no dice. fyi- They send you a notice saying that a real estate agent will be showing you around town after the interview. I was interviewed by several people (I was totally exhausted) and was told that on business trips I would have to share a hotel room with unknown co-workers. "This saves money for the consumer". After the interview you are tortured further by a 3 hour tour of real estate by a real estate agent before you can free yourself and go back to your room. A stressful experience, to say the least. In the end, I couldn't wait to say goodbye to Bentonville, Arkansas.

Interviewed Sep 2010 in Hastings, MN (took 5 days)
The person who was supposed to interview me went on break instead and it took them nearly an hour to bring someone else to interview me. This man, clearly not being prepared because it wasn't his job in the first place, had no idea what to do or say or ask me, so mainly he read aloud my application to me (even though i already knew what I had said on it...) asked if I had any questions, couldn't give direct answers for any questions except for regarding hours, of which they only hade 16 per week for me even though I was told this was a full time position.

Interviewed Apr 2011 in Bellefontaine, OH (took a day)
The interview took place in the Human Resource office in the back of the store, it consisted of a 1:1 interview discussing yourself, skills and your personality as to why they should hire you. I answered scenarios as to how I responded to various problems on previous jobs. I then had a group interview with 4 people and did the same thing as the first interview. Remember to be calm, collective, professional, mature, dress nice and don't be afraid to show that you are a great person worth hiring, a smile goes a long way.

Interviewed Nov 2011 in Cooper City, FL (took a day)
I met the HR Recruiter at a local job fair and pestered her at least once a week. Finally, I got the call to come for an interview? I went to the back of the store into one of the offices. The area manager took me inside to talk to me while HR was busy on the phone. He asked why I wanted to work at Walmart. I answered .Once HR entered the office the interview began with a series of questions meant to test my competency . Often leading with Describe a time when you ________. I knew some retail I blew two of my question due to nerves but I did my best. I didn't receive an offer but next time. I will apply again in the future though because I think it's a great opportunity. For your interview, learn all you can about the company come prepared to ask questions. Know their mission statement and philosophy , their quarterly report it will tell you a lot and most importantly you can see where the line of questioning will emanate from. After the interview, follow proper protocol follow up with an email thanking them for the interview.
