I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Publix (Kathleen, GA) in Mar 2011
Interview
I submitted my application online and was then called by the Deli Manager for an interview. She was amazing. Then I had an interview with the Store Manager and she was awesome as well. Shortly after I was hired and taught how to run the entire deli as if it were my own.

Question 1
I do not remember any difficult questions. The process of the interview was uplifting and I believe they were looking at my appearance, body language and charisma in answering their questions. They were not covert but did expect you to answer honestly.
