I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Kroger (Champaign, IL) in Aug 2022
Interview
Was recommended by a friend to join. I walked in one day, my friend pointed me out, and the general manager came up to me, asked about my availability, and gave me a job. I started a week later.
Very easy smooth process the hiring manager was really sweet asked the right questions appreciated that they let me think and took my time to come up with my answers
Applied online, received an email a week later with an invitation to a phone screening interview. still waiting for the interview to happen and then I will know more about the process
