I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Walgreens in May 2009
Interview
Back in 2008, Walgreens did not have an interview for me. I applied online and got a phone call the next day to offer a sign on bonus and do I want to be a floater or have a store. Only 5 minutes on the phone with supervisor.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Did not ask any questions, just talking about what they can offer me if I want to work for them.
Was able to schedule my interviews quickly and they were very responsive to emails. They asked very basic questions about your background as well as your motivations for applying. The recruiters were very nice and easy to talk to.
There were behavior based interview questions, tell me about yourself, strengths and weaknesses. Usually with a pharmacy and store manager. Maybe with a district manager. A tour is given if interview is in person.
Interview process was really easy - they ask basic questions for any normal pharmacist job and a routine screening. I worked at Walgreens as an intern for most of my college years so there wasn't much additional screening for hiring as a pharmacist.
