The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Publix (Miami, FL) in Dec 2008
Interview
They offered me a phone interview which was pretty standard. They asked me about customers service skills, flexibility with scheudling and so forth. They are a very stern company that is deep rooted in tradition.

Long and time consuming. Too many questions about nothing and dumb hypothetical situations. Asked personal off base questions. Walked store and asked i pick out flaws. I had to fake fire and hire someone.
