I applied in-person. I interviewed at Publix (Bluffton, SC) in Dec 2010
Interview
If you want to be hired you need to first fill out an application. Then show your face almost daily bugging the store manager, then you need to make sure that you are available to work at any time they need you, and be willing to work wherever they want to place you at first. Once you get your foot in the door you can submit an ROI (request of interest) what position you would really like to be in.
I applied online. I interviewed at Publix (Saint Petersburg, FL) in May 2011
Interview
Nothing special, just asked my experience about working in retail. It was mostly personality based. Interviewer was very nice and we clicked instantly. Didnt just treat me as another interview, but as a future employee.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
If a customer has a question that you can't answer, what do you do?
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Publix
Interview
All I had to do was submit an application and wait for a response from the employer. When I was called in he asked me if I was good with people, and if I could follow directions, and work hard. When he was done asking questions I took a drug test and that was it.
