When I went to the interview way back in 2019, it went very smoothly and professionally. The assistant manager, who interviewed me during this time, was very nice and professional.

Easy going. The entire process was smooth. No problems. Practically got the job for being a living breathing human being. They'll hire anyone who has a pulse. Don't be nervous.

So, to preface; I've worked at Walmart on 3 separate instances, the first two times were at the same store location, and I was hired by the same HR person both times. The third time was a store in a different part of the state, so obviously a different HR person. I say all this to highlight that it seems to be standard practice to not really do any sort of standard interview with HR before receiving an answer. The first two times I got hired, all I had to do was find out which days HR was scheduled to be in the office and the hours they were normally available to be called. Eventually I was able to speak on the phone with the woman who took care of their hiring, she outlined the position they were currently trying to fill, asked me a couple baseline questions (are you at least 18, legally eligible to work, etc) then offered me the job and detailed next steps to complete before orientation. The only actual difference between those two and the third time I was hired was that the third time around, HR actually reached out to me first so I didnt have to spend as much time trying to reach them.
