I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Safeway (Honolulu, HI) in Jan 2016
Interview
Short, asked prescribed questions. Conducted by two people- rather laid back. If they liked you, gave you a drug test right there. Focus on customer assistance, how to dissolve any customer distress. Overall assessment of your ability to set aside personal feelings and focus on helping a customer, no matter what.

I received a call the next day after I submitted my application for an interview the next day. When I arrived I was greeted very welcoming. The interviewer was very pleasant and very well spoken.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
What kind of work have you done in your past employments?
I applied through other source. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Safeway (Everett, WA) in Jan 2011
Interview
I was already an employee in the store so it was very informal. The assistant manager called me outside of work to ask if I would be interested in training in bookkeeping and customer service, because they felt I would be a great fit for the position. I actually had prior accounting experience that was on my resume, but he clearly did not even look at my work history since he asked if I had ever done any bookkeeping or accounting. He also informed me that it was the same union I was currently in, which at the time I did not realize was a sly way of saying I would not receive a raise.
