I applied in-person. I interviewed at Hy-Vee (Topeka, KS) in Sep 2017
Interview
Hiring event style interview. Couple dozen people lined up when the store opened to have a 30-second conversation with a manager. Waited in line for about an hour to basically just hand over resume.

Question 1
Asked me if given my background if I could survive off of what they were offering, among other questions of course.
Very nice. She just asked behavior questions and was very kind in explaining the job. I got a call after I applied and then there was an in person interview scheduled.
It was fine. Pretty standard job interview. They drug test there but if you don’t take drugs you should be fine. They are weird about piercings though so if you have piercings I would look elsewhere.
