I applied in-person. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Sam's Club (Bentonville, AR) in Jan 2018
Interview
Extremely easy questions. The interviewers just found out what position I was applying for when the interview started. They had no idea whom they are interviewing. It seemed to me the interviewers were not completely ready. Besides, they may ask the questions they know. For example, you are applying for mobile engineers and the interviewers are web developers they ask you web related questions.

The questions were all knowledge base questions such as core java topics, and some very easy design questions. What is the inheritance, polymorphs, and abstract class vs interface and etc.

Interview
A few days before I got an email saying the interview has two rounds: coding and design. Coding round involved Java and no Leetcode questions. It was meant to simulate real work as the requirements changed. Design round just threw a system design question at you and I was not prepared for it.

Simple and effective they responded fast and set up interview quickly. Have not heard back but they were good about setting up the interview. I would do it again. The interview itself was a bit difficult but none the less it captured necessary things to show knowledge for the job.
