The interview process wasn’t frustrating or anything like that at all. It was very straight forward and gave reminders so that you wouldn’t forget. Made it seem like they really wanted you to be apart of the company.

The process took 1 day. I interviewed at CVS Health (New Suffolk, NY) in Sep 2021

I originally applied to another store at first, and on the interview, the SM (store manager) interviewed me, mainly asking questions about my availability, what hours I was expecting, what the job entailed, asking about my own experiences. She then said that she really liked me and that she would hire me, but, I wanted more hours than she had, so she offered to set me up an interview with a different store's SM. The other store's SM was also very polite, but she basically told me that she was very short staffed and that I would have more flexibility on how many hours I'd want. She explained the pay rate, then explained the role again for me. After accepting the in person offer, the system was updated on her end immediately, but took 48 hours to finally give me my offer. I then had to wait for another day before the background check form was emailed to me, and then waited another two days before it came back, and they sent me links for uploading my onboarding documents/getting my info. It took two more days after that, and then my SM texted me about my start date. On my first few shifts, I did not have a computer login/register login, and didn't know what to do at all. I did online training for my first two weeks. Overall it was a very neutral experience, just the technology mainly was what was wrong.
- What did you do at your last job? What are you seeing in your future 5 years from now? If I called (previous managers name) right now that you put as a reference and put it on speakerphone, would they say you had great attendance and they would recommend you? Do you know what CVS Health as a company does as a whole?
