Interviewed Jun 2010 (took 3 weeks)
First interview was a general phone interview. After this, I was scheduled for an in-person with a GM. I was then told that the info would go to the DM and they would decided on the next step. I was called and interviewed with the DM and offered a job shortly after.

Interviewed Dec 2011 (took a day)
I have only participated in a first round interview with this company so far, I am waiting to here if I made it to the second round. My experience was very pleasant; all behavioral questions. The questions were pretty standard, and I did not feel like I was being grilled and put on the spot or trying to be tricked.

Interviewed Oct 2011 in Chicago, IL (took 3 weeks)
I applied online and was contacted by HR soon after for the phone screen, which went very well. Had a phone screen with the hiring manager a week later. That also went extremely well and was told halfway through the call that I was definitely being brought in for a series of in-person interviews, which took place about 2 weeks later.
All the in-person interviews were solid, and the hiring manager told me that I would hear back within a week about the final round. I emailed HR after a week and was told that more candidates were being reviewed, and they would get back to me in 10 days. I emailed the hiring manager the following week (thus, 2 weeks after my real interviews) and was given the same response.
I NEVER EVER heard from Walgreens again. To say that I was extremely disappointed in their utter lack of professionalism would be a gross understatement. To blow me off after a phone screen would be one thing, but to take a candidate through 3 rounds of interviews and not even let them know by email that they're not proceeding any further is quite unacceptable. I certainly would never apply there again.

Interviewed Sep 2011 (took 3 days)
I applied online for the Pharmacy Technician position at Walgreens. A few days later, I received a call from the hiring manager and scheduled me for an interview. He asked me about my past work experiences, what I liked and disliked about past jobs, conflict (if any) with coworkers, reason why I applied for the job and scheduling availability. The manager was friendly and the interview felt like having a normal conversation with someone.

Interviewed Oct 2011 in Deerfield, IL (took 2+ weeks)
I got this interview from our campus recruiting. It was an 2 year rotations program which helps you get your feet wet in different apartment. The interview was the hardest one ever! They have 2 recruiters in the same room interviewing me, asked me a lot of behavior questions, some questions are very long and unusual. They did not ask any thing on my resume.

Interviewed Jun 2011 (took a day)
First I had to take a skills and personality test. Then a few days later I received a call that set an interview date. In the interview they asked me questions like why do you want the job, whats your highest education, and for me personally asked me what days I am going to college. After the college questions, I was told they were hiring those days, and they sent me on my jobless way.
