I applied in-person. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Publix (Fort Lauderdale, FL) in Sep 2013
Interview
Apply on one of the Publix computers located outside some stores in where your application process goes fast that if you apply from a different source. First you receive a call from the Manager of the Customer Service to schedule a personal interview on the store. Your interview is conducted in the store with the assessor of the Store Manager.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Publix
Interview
Very short and unprofessional. I was asked ridiculous questions. They did a lot of my important information over the phone which resulted in another easy pointless interview. They hire anyone and anyone as long as you can pass a drug test
I applied in-person. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Publix in May 2010
Interview
ASM came to me at my location of employment, offering a position. Applied and interviewed within 2 days. Interview was a few minimal questions, as the application process is a glorified personality test, exploring every facet of your personality, including work ethic, retention likelihood, etc.
