The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Walgreens in Apr 2011
Interview
I walked-in every single walgreens in town to speak with pharmacy manager for the job opening. I got lucky and got called in the next day. Pharmacy manager and the store manager asked handful of questions to find out why I want the job, why I am the best candidate, previous experiences with customers etc. They told me in many times they'd hire potential pharmacy technician candidate as cashier to see if they are trustworthy.
