Frequently asked questions

What is required to apply for a job at Walmart?

Application requirements vary depending on the career area you are viewing. As a minimum age requirement, you must be at least 16 years old to work at Walmart. Certain positions, however, require a minimum age of 18. As you prepare to complete your application have your prior work history available.

On average, how long does it take to fill out an application?

On average, it takes 45-60 minutes to complete your application for the first time. Subsequent applications will take less time to apply as Walmart's system saves some of your application information. Please note that some positions require the completion of assessments in order to receive consideration for that role. Those would take additional time.

Can I stop the application in process and come back to finish it later?

Yes, if you are in the middle of an application and are unable to complete it for any reason, you have the ability to save your work and log back in at a later time to complete the application via "saved drafts".

Can I change my application after submitting?

No, you cannot change your application after submitting, so please make sure that everything is finalized before you hit the submit button.

How does Walmart protect my personal information?

Processing of information on paper is minimal, and Walmart processes application information using an applicant tracking system (ATS). Access to the data within the ATS is restricted to authorized personnel, and the system itself is held to high security standards by Walmart.
