I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Publix in Jan 2012
Interview
I walked into a Publix Store and filled out a job application at the online job centre,two weeks later i was invited for an interview at another location.It was a group interview with the Store Manager and the manager in charge of the store where i will be assigned.Interview questions consisted of previous work experience, educational Background and questions to see if iam a fit for the job.I was offered the job immediately. Generally both managers were friendly and courteous.
The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Publix (Lakeland, FL) in Mar 2012
Interview
I thought the interview process was a little strange coming in with over 20 years of relevant experience. I had to take 4 hours worth of tests more difficult than my SAT's The worst part was the test had nothing to do with the job I was applying for. If they did, I would not have mind taking them. Also you sit there for four hours and nobody offered me a drink or restroom break. I would recommend anyone applying at the Lakeland office to study as you did for the SAT's, do plenty of brain teasers, etc...
