I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Kroger in Jul 2010
Interview
The hiring process included me going for an immediate interview after I was called about a week after applying. During the interview, I was asked a series of questions regarding why I wanted to work there, what would I bring to the company, and why did I want the job. A drug test was given immediately after the interview. I got a call three days later to come in and get a uniform and begin training. The training process took about 2 days.

I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Kroger (Cumming, GA) in Mar 2011
Interview
Initially received a phone call to schedule an interview several days after my online application. I arrived a bit early so I had to wait for about ten minutes upstairs, I guess they weren't expecting me to be prompt. When my interviewer arrived, it was fairly straightforward and quick from then on. We went into the office and I was asked simple questions about myself, my work experience, and why I wanted to work for Kroger. At that point, the conversation shifted to the job description, work environment, expectations of me, and the drug test I'd have to take. I then was given time to ask questions, and then taken to the HR person to take my drug test. I was called a few days later when the results were in to schedule training and orientation. Easy process, and the front end manager was very nice throughout it all.

Question 1
There weren't really any difficult or unexpected questions. They were fairly simple and straightforward. The only one that wasn't about me or my history was why did I want to work for Kroger, and that was simple to wing my way through. Easiest interview I've ever had.
I applied through college or university. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at Kroger in Aug 2011
Interview
I sent my application somewhere around February and March, did not heard anything until late August. I was told to complete 6-7 behavioral questions as part of the application. I was called to set up the first interview at the district office. It was about an hours long. Was pretty basic. Went over personal information, background, etc. If the first interview goes well, you move on to another interview but this time at the division office. The second interview was almost 3 hours long, went over your application in real detail and part of it was a role play, to assess your thought process and leadership abilities. About 5 days later, I got a phone call offering me the job and going over my starting pay.
