I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Publix (Canton, GA) in Jul 2009
Interview
I was brought in because I knew someone that already worked there. The only real way I see of getting your foot in the door is if you know someone that already works within the store, as they can step forward and introduce you.
Filled out application on line…was asked a few days later to come into store 3 management people there in interview…just average questions…I told them positive things I liked about the company…let them know I lived within 2 miles of store…and was eager to work any shift.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Would I like to work in the cheese and meat section of the store
You may need to wait, the length for getting a look from then personally took me 6 months. Followed by onboarding process which lasted for a day followed by more
Interview with Department manager normally in person, takes about 30 mins. Easy enough process. Normally you do a quick phone interview or online form before receiving the interview. Took me about 2 days to hear back on a decision.
