I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Safeway (Santa Rosa, CA) in May 2012
Interview
The interview took ten minutes. They ask you a series of questions and if you seem like the right fit then they will offer a position. You will get offered a position on the spot if you are selected. Then they will proceed with the rest of the hiring process. Drug test background check

Question 1
If you were a customer, how would you want to be treated?
I submitted an application in store and got called in to do an in person interview. The manager was super easy to talk to and had been with the store a long time.

Question 1
Why do you want to work in the deli versus other departments?
It was very informative and I felt comfortable with the knowledge that my interview would be considered with the utmost thought. I did not land the position, but have no ill will, they were right in the deli did not suit me. A barista position was far more paletteable
pretty easy and straightforward tho didn't get the job. probably shouldve done more prep. didn't have much experience with deli work which may have been why i didn't get the job but oh well
