I applied in-person. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Walmart in Oct 2011
Interview
There was a sign outside of the store for a job fair. I went inside, was directed to a kiosk in the customer service area. I filled out a standard application on the kiosk, then was prompted to fill out a questionaire reguarding ethics. The entire process took about 45-60 minutes. The next day, I was called back for an interview with an HR associate. We discussed my application and went over a few scenarios of past employment such as problems and resolutions to the problems. After the interview, I was promtly given a second interview by a member of managment. The interview was very similar, and contained almost the exact same questions. The interview process took a little over an hour. After the interview, I was scheduled an appointment for a drug test(which has to be done within 24 hours) in the neighborhood of the store.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
As an entry level job, there were no extremely hard questions in the interview. There were a lot of questions reguarding past experiences for example; Name a time when you had an upset customer, and what did you do to calm them down. name a time when you had a large amount of work, and not enough time to do it in and what you did to make sure it all got done.
The interview process was straightforward and simple. I have yet to experience on boarding, but will update when completed.
Anxious to see what the starting rate is.
I am supposed to receive an email tomorrow about next steps.
Was quick and easy! Showed up for hiring event and got hired on the spot! And started working like a week later. Been a good company so far. Spoke with Kiera. She is very nice and understanding.
Very simple, in person one-on-one with a manager. Told me about Walmart and the role and asked if I was interested. Little to no questions and was over quite fast.
