The process was standard. It included a phone interview and an in-person interview, with a follow-up. I received a call shortly after applying. However, there were weeks between each step, which didn't seem very efficient. Everyone I interacted with was very nice and helpful in providing information about the company and the role. Overall, it was a good experience.

I applied at a kiosk and then got called in for a very short interview with a manager. They seemed really distracted and weren't paying attention at one point, even calling me the wrong name. The manager came across as arrogant and rude, and I felt super uncomfortable the whole time.

The interview process was very professional and helpful. I did not get an offer, but it was very thorough and I would recommend Publix. As with any employer, preparing for the interview will help you perform well.
