The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Walmart (Raynham, MA) in Aug 2009
Interview
I had three interviews. Twice I arrived to find the assistant manager who was supposed to interview me was not present. I had to wait over an hour for anyone to come to interview me.
There were lots of ridiculous questions. There were also scenario questions, such as "tell me about a time you didn't follow the rules".
Overall, the interview process was easy.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time you used a shortcut. What was the outcome.
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Walmart in Jun 2009
Interview
Just your basic average interview where the human resource person feels you out. They looked for experience, attitude, and ambition. My overall perception of the people that I dealt with was that of a professional group that knew exactally what they wanted out of the job candidate. Was a relaxed atmosphere for the interview.

Question 1
What was the most difficult problem you encountered in a past work experience and how did you resolve it?
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Walmart (Apex, NC) in Aug 2009
Interview
This was an interview for a new store. I applied online through walmart career page and interviewed at a hiring center in a local mall. The questions were all situational. Describe a time that you did x, why, and what was the outcome. The interviewer was friendly and didn't really like having to ask these kind of questions. Usually there would have been a second round of interviews, when she printed out the questions she stated that all the questions were basically the same as the ones she already asked. This is the second time I have interviewed for a new store and I have the impression as long as you attempt to answer the questions you will be hired. They will be calling my references and then I should be called for a job offer and drug test. Walmart does actually call your references so make sure they are up-to-date.
