I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Kroger (Shreveport, LA) in May 2015
Interview
You walk in and sign a sheet of paper signing in for the interview. I have severe social anxiety so I was already nervous going into this. You sit down with about 15 other people and the interviewer goes around and asks you to introduce yourself and asks you some questions. You also have to try and sell a piece of merchandise to the other people interviewing. You have to stand up and speak in front of everyone. This would be great for social people but for someone with SAD (social anxiety disorder) it was a nightmare. I was nervous and could feel myself getting incredibly hot and panicky. I told the interviewer that I was sorry and had to leave, she walked out with me and said "are you really going to leave and keep this from getting you a job?" I told her i was sorry and that I was thankful for the opportunity. She continued to push and ask questions, she was incredibly rude, so I just left. If you have SAD and don't do good in groups I would suggest not applying here because you most likely will have a group interview.
