What’s more, some of these positions are with teams that job seekers might not imagine the retail giant would employ, said Amy Gold-finger, the company’s senior vice president of global talent.

“We have merchants, data analysts, robotics engineers, pharmacists, and meteorologists,” she added. “Sometimes people are surprised by just the range of types of roles.”

Despite being in the midst of a legal battle with the US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission over its treatment of disabled employees, Walmart remains the largest private employer in the world. The company has 2.3 million workers globally and ranked ninth on Forbes’ list of “America’s Largest Companies in 2021.”

Walmart is focused on hiring for positions in customer service, finance, merchandising, supply chain, and technology, Gold-finger said. She told Insider how job seekers could land a role with the retail giant.

“The best way to show up is as yourself, 100%, but with having done some good homework around ‘How does my experience really relate to this role?'” Gold-finger said.

Showcase your experience and values

Believe it or not, before expanding into the retail empire it is today, Walmart was once a single discount store. This history influences the values the company looks for in job seekers today, Gold-finger said.

There are four basic beliefs tied to Walmart’s values: Service the customer, respect the individual, strive for excellence, and act with integrity, Gold-finger said. Walmart is looking for authentic, respectful, high-achieving workers who value service leadership, she added.

During the hiring process, Walmart looks for these qualities through behavior-based questions. The best way to answer these questions is through examples, but candidates should feel empowered to ask questions to help them formulate their answers, Gold-finger said.

“I always tell candidates to ask those questions,” Gold-finger added. “‘What are you really looking for? What’s important here?’ So that you can prepare yourself with really concrete examples.”

Additionally, while Walmart values authenticity, the company also wants job seekers who understand the organization.

Demonstrate excitement about growth opportunities

Job seekers who land themselves one of these available roles should feel confident that joining Walmart is just the first step in what can be a long and successful career with the company, Gold-finger said.

“We’re also extremely committed to ensuring there’s a path for everyone at Walmart to learn and grow,” she added. “So it’s not just about that first job that you’ve come into. It’s never about that.”

When searching for their first job at Walmart, job seekers at every level should use the company’s career website to find positions and apply, she said. The length of the hiring process may vary, but job seekers can expect to connect with a recruiter and then have multiple interviews with hiring managers, Gold-finger added.

She also said that this is a prime time for interested job seekers to join the company, as the retail giant is venturing into health and wellness, financial services, and more. Walmart is even joining the cryptocurrency craze, with Markets Insider reporting that the company partnered with Coin star to install 200 bitcoin ATMs in the retail magnet’s stores. “It is an amazing time to be at Walmart,” Gold-finger said. “If you have sort of an innovative, agile, lean-in kind of mindset and way of operating, this is just an incredible time to be here.”
