I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Walmart (Chicago, IL) in Mar 2010
Interview
Applied at the store and was hired as a sales associate - highly recommend wearing a tie to the interview - worked for me - but at the end of the day just bring your A game and believe in yourself. Would think that its the same thing that applies really anywhere (big company wise...)
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Walmart (Bloomington, MN) in Jun 2010
Interview
Walmart advertised on job boards. I then applied on their website which was user friendly. They called me shortly thereafter. I was invited to attend a meeting of potential hires At the meeting, they informed us of the opportunity, potential advancement,benefits and expectations. We met with HR managers individually. About 3 days later, they called and set up face to face interviews with store management. Within a week, they called and gave me the decision to be hired.
