I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Walmart
Interview
Interview was set up via a phone call. If you get a second interview, then you have the job, barring a failed drug test. You are sent to take said drug test immediately after the interview. They will call you within a week if you got the job.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
There were no truly difficult questions. It was mainly an anecdote about qualities of the company and asking about any time that you demonstrated similar qualities.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Walmart in Nov 2009
Interview
The interview went well. I though the questions did a good job of surmising what I know about working with others. The questions were short situations that had you decide how you should respond in a certain situation. I did have a tough time getting an interview in the first place. I applied a few times and only was asked to interview as a temporary employee during the holidays. Fortunately, I was offered a part time position at the end of the holidays.
I completed my application and received a call back about 2 months after. I went for my interview, which was pretty easy and relaxed to me. I was interviewed by a department manager and then an assistant manager. I was asked only a few questions and both managers were engaging and friendly. I was then offered the job, which I accepted. I then went for my drug test and started working a few days later.

Question 1
The most difficult question for me was one that asked me to give an example of how I had gone out of my way to help a customer. This was difficult for me only because I had not had a job in retail before so I was unsure how to answer. The assistant manager told me to relax and accepted an answer that had absolutely nothing to do with retail.
