Question

How do I pass the drug test at Walmart?

Community Answer

Don't use drugs. If it's too late for that, you'll just have to drink a ton of water in the days leading up to the test and pray.

What do I do if Walmart was going to interview me but they never responded back to me?

Question

Why does a background check take so long?

Community Answer

The background check takes so long because of the research and reference checking that needs to be done to find out as much as possible about an individual's personal history. Also, it's not the only thing the management/hiring employees are doing all day, they have to keep doing their other management jobs too.

Question

How do I find out if Walmart is hiring for part-time help?

Community Answer

Go into Walmart's online career site. Put in your own zip code to narrow down the specific areas that have a part-time position available for something you qualify for. This will tell you what they have available.

Question

Does Walmart hire felons?

Spaceship

Community Answer

Yes, Walmart may hire people with felony convictions because it has adopted the ban the box policy. This means they don’t ask about criminal convictions on the application.
