I applied through other source. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Publix (Gainesville, FL) in May 2012
Interview
The entire interview lasted maybe an hour. Pretty easy stuff, it doesn't take much intelligence to get a job here. They mainly want to make sure you can work the different shifts. Let's be real....you're bagging groceries. You don't even need a college degree to become a manager of a store. Drug test is a mouth swab.
East interview, greeted by assistant manager. Very friendly staff as well. Thirty minutes no more than forty minutes. Also got to meet the store manager, great environment overall. Dressed business casual
This is one of the easiest interviews I’ve encountered. Be yourself, it’ll take you far. They love someone who wants to tend to the customer at almost any cost, a team player, and one who takes time management seriously.
