I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Safeway (Lebanon, OR) in Sept 2013
Interview
You sit in a room with the store director, the meat operations specialist, and the district manager. they ask you the usual questions, why do you want it, explain a time of exceptional customer service, how you handle conflicts, and they read the job expectations to you. It only takes up towards an hour if you have a lot of questions of your own to ask them.
