I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Publix (Ballentine, SC) in Dec 2012
Interview
Family friend was already an employee so it went very smoothly, zero experience in the grocery business but they took me on and trained me. They explained in detail which department I would be working in and what type of duties would be asked of me and what needed to be done on a daily basis, and if I could handle that.

Question 1
What type of worker am I, Why did I choose publix? Do I think working here would be a good fit? Did the companies core values coincide with those of my own etc.
Very short and easy interview. The interview only lasted about five minutes and they asked me about how I would handle certain situations. After the interview, they called me a few days later and offered me a job.
