I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at H E B (Buda, TX) in Jun 2013
Interview
There was Me and this other guy I knew from high school who was were basketball shorts and tee-shirt. I was wearing a red button down and khakis. I went to be pre-interviewed by the CCOM (central checkout operations manager - top manager for central checkout) with the general "why this job?", "do you have a car?" - I don't remember everything. If you pass this interview you get to be interviewed by the Unit Director (General Store manager - highest level employee at the store) and there I was asked more situation-based questions (i.e. you saw a customer stealing an item - wat do?). He asked if I was nervous, I said that I am. He asked me why and I just said "because I have to prove that I have the ability to do this job to you, and that is hard". For some reason this impressed him quite a bit.
If you do well enough, they will ask you if they can do a BG check. This means you'll get the job if the BG check clears, but they won't say this at this point.
Also, that other kid wearing shorts got the job too, so I guess attire is not so important.

I applied online. I interviewed at H E B (San Antonio, TX)
Interview
The process is simple enough, its mostly a lot of STAR based questions. And the digital interview is basically the same as the in person. The questions most of the time will be identical, if not extremely similar.

Question 1
Describe a time you were tasked to work with a team
I interviewed at a grocery store where the manager asked about my customer service skills and availability. The atmosphere was friendly, and I felt confident discussing my past teamwork experience.

Question 1
Name a time I had to mitigate an issue with a co worker.
It was easy and straightforward. I received a call back days later and went in for an interview. The manager was very engaged and felt like a conversation. I was called a week later to being my onboarding process.
