I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Walmart (Sparta, WI) in Dec 2010
Interview
There was two interviews, one with the zms over the dept. and one with the assistant manager. Then there was a drug test. Questions were about work experience. Just be yourself and you will do fine!

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.

Question 1
Describe a time when you provided excellent customer service. What did you do to please the customer?
First you fill out an instore computer application, then you wait for a phone call. It is important to follow up religiously, otherwise you may not receive a call back. Then they schedule an in-store interview and you take an in-store computer test. Afterwards, management evaluates the results, looks at your resume, and schedules occupational physical (if you have been offered a job). Then you must attend orientation training. Expect for your first several weeks of employment to be on the computer at least an hour per day doing computer based learning modules.
