Thousands of positions are currently available, from basic entry-level jobs at Walmart stores, to executive roles at the home office, and everything in between. Right now, the company has a tremendous need for technology talent. It's also looking for people in finance strategy, global sourcing, marketing and innovations, among others.

Any secrets to impressing your recruiter?
"Candidates should know and understand the company, and have a passion for it and the role for which they are applying. Their resume should be tailored for the specific position. Applicants should be prepared to show and quantify results, not just list duties performed, and be able to demonstrate their ability to solve problems."
