Interviewed Oct 2011 in Chesapeake, VA (took 2 days)
I completed an online application. Was contacted almost a week later for an interview. The interview consisted of a few basic interview questions. Then I was asked to come in for a second interview the next day. One basic interview question like, " tell me about a time when you had more than one task to complete and what was the outcome". Then I was offered the job!

Interviewed Jun 2011 in Dothan, AL (took a day)
I was called by an associate and I was set up for an interview the next day. I got there 10 minutes early and was told by one of the members of management to wait in the site-to-store area for the woman. She greeted me when she eventually arrived and I was lead to the back of the store into an office where three other employees were working (making phone calls, talking to each other, etc.). The woman gave me my information that was printed on a few sheets of paper that I was given to look over and confirm. After that, she began to read directly off of a piece of paper several interview questions. All of them dealt with telling her about situations where I took charge or was given a task. I was not prepared for these. The woman didn't seem to enthused about being there, either. When we were done, I was asked to exit through the site-to-store area and that she would call me. She has yet to call.

Interviewed Oct 2010 (took a day)
As someone who has sat in on about 80 Wal-Mart interviews I know that you MUST call to get an interview. Some stores have over 1000 applications in their systems.
Interviews are structured and usually require 2-3 interviews before an offer is made.
First you will come in and be interviewed by a low level manager. They will ask you questions from a standard set of questions. Your answers are graded from a 1-5.
All questions are scenario based (describe a time where you...) You must give a positive example to pass. They will grade each of your questions. If you pass all the questions (usually about 10) you will go on to the next manager, usually a store manager. They will ask similar questions and about the same quantity. If you pass there is an option to be interviewed again but this is not typical.
Unless there is a lot of competition they will tell you right away if you are being offered a job.
Prepare for at least three hours for the interviews. Also, be sure to have good references on your application. Many times they will call them during the interview to ask about you. If you are hired you will have to take a drug test within 24 hours.

Negotiation Details
You salary is based on experience. Expect minimum wage + a small amount if you have experience. The salary structure has changed so don't be surprised to be offered minimum wage, take it or leave it. There are some shift differentials for evening jobs.

Interviewed Sep 2010 in Longview, TX (took a day)
Interview process was great. The first interview consists of a 1:1 interview with a department manager. The 2nd and 3rd process will be a panel interview that consist of co managers. The questions they ask are off a sheet of paper and all questions will be about how you will handle certain things. They use the same questions but will word it differently. Interview is pretty easy, nothing to worry about.

Interviewed Jan 2011 in Columbus, OH (took 1+ week)
Came to glassdoor.com to see which jobs paid well for entry positions. Saw Walmart did, applied online at Walmart.com. About 3 days later got an call to come for an interview. All questions asked were in the format of
tell me about a time you had a problem,difficulties,deadlines,group project....and what were they, what steps did you take to solve them....and what was the final outcome. Than there was a panel interview basically asked the same questions in a different context. About 5 or 6 days later was asked to come in for a third interview, which consisted of the job offer and drug test basically.

Interviewed Apr 2010 in Gulfport, MS (took a day)
very standardized interview process. they called me into a small room with two desks and a row of computers. some people were there on the computers doing what i now know to be CBL's [traning programs]. it might be a little awkward answering these questions in front of random associates who are probably listening to you, but just do your best with that. there were two women at the desks. i sat next to one who was the one conducting the interview, the other was just listening in, although she seemed to be required to be an equal part of the interview [not that she actually was.]
they asked me questions about how i had handled situations at previous jobs or whatever, just real easy standard stuff. i think she even finished with "why should i hire you?". just make sure you study, because from what i understand they ask everyone the same basic questions. every now and then the other woman [who did almost no talking] would chime in and say something. there were a lot of interruptions from people popping in and doing stuff. it seemed like a madhouse, but very laid back and relaxed, which took some of the pressure off, but also kind of concerned me about what i might be getting myself into with management. after the questions she turned to the other woman and actually said to her [right in front of me] [and i quote] "what do you think?"
[i couldnt believe it.]
anyway, i got the job. she got me to fill out all the forms and whatever. gave me the papers to go do a drug test, and i left the building with a job.
i got a call back when the test results came in asking when i could start training [took a day and a half.]
overall very basic, very easy interview. not very professional. just dress appropriately and come looking your best. you want to look very good, but modest. they generally like a youthful appearance.

Negotiation Details
there was little negotiation. they told me i would be required to work weekends. i was asked if this was okay. - yes.
they told me i would be making this much money and it included a night shift pay increase of this much. i was aksed if this was okay. - yes.
they explained that if i ever went to day shift i would lose this pay increase. i was asked if i understood. - yes.
the only thing they really allowed me to negotiate was my hours [which they are very good with admitedly. i am a college student so they made that really easy for me.]
