I showed initial interest and applied during a Job Fair at my college when I one year out from graduating. A couple of days later I received an phone call from the Recruiter to setup a phone interview. I had my initial phone interview with the same Recruiter. It was basic questions to get an idea if I was a company fit (nothing technical). After I completed 3 online skill tests and took a drug test. All in all the process was pain less and easy.

Walmart paid for my Greyhound bus ticket that took me from Melbourne, FL to Atlanta, GA to be interviewed. Had 4 back-to-back interviews. Watched as others with me had 2 and then were dropped. At the end of the 4th interview, I was offered a position with starting pay. There was not much room for negotiation, but I was able to ask for a slightly higher pay than they initially offered and then accepted it.
