I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Walmart (Lansing, MI) in Sept 2010
Interview
Stop wasting your time and calling in to check on your application. This company has 2 lists, A and B. A list consists of current employees that want to change departments and the best of the best from the applications. The B list is considered if the A list fails to produce someone to fill the position. If they want you then you will get a call. You have an interview with usually a zone manager first. If they like you then the next interview is done with an assistant manager. Sometimes one right after the other. Then you sign a form for a background check and are given paperwork for a drug screening. If both come back with on issues then they call you for orientation. Total
takes about 2 weeks. They are pretty laid back and in no way formal.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe a time when you provided excellent customer service. What did you do to please the customer?
Phone interview and then asked to come in for in person interview. The hiring manager asked typical interview questions. Why do you want to work here? And asked bout scheduling availability,
There was a lot of questions but overall it went pretty decent. They were your standard interview questions. I am happy with the outcome but maybe I could do better next time.
Solid and very well informative process. It was straightforward and well put together. I really enjoyed the people that I interacted with and ultimately chose another route due to time constraints.
