I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Publix (Jacksonville, FL) in Oct 2011
Interview
First, I was shown a tour of the warehouse by two employees and explained how the order selectors do their job. I was then asked to pick up one of the more heavier boxes which was about 49 lbs. (aka: physical agility test) After that, I was taken back to the waiting area to have my interview with the hiring manager. They are looking for people to fit in their clique. The interview consists of a short speech on the importance of safety and then the interviewer reads questions off of a a sheet and writes down your answers. My related background or experience was never discussed and he really emphasized the question of "How to you approach getting along with coworkers." I interviewed on a Tuesday and got the "Thanks but no thanks" letter on Friday. I really didn't find them to be that impressive. I'm actually glad I didn't get hired because I don't like the social politics.
I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Publix in Sep 2009
Interview
the hiring process was quite easy. The manager who interviewed me was so nice to me. He made me feel comfortable while asking me some questions as he wrote them down. Publix hiring process isnt hard to only answer some question that is asked of you. The whole interview about 30 mins and i got the call back within 6 days.
The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Publix (Murfreesboro, TN) in Jun 2011
Interview
I was treated very professional from Publix employees. I was contacted in regards to my resume and that I would be doing testing. The HR Representative explained the directions very clear. When I interviewed face-to-face for the position, I was treated very well. I was told that I would receive a phone call about the status of my candidacy. I was called about 2 weeks after the interview that I did not get the position. I was impressed that I actually got a phone call that I did not get the position.
The office environment at the corporate office was very professional and I felt welcome from the moment I arrived.
