I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Walgreens (Madison, WI) in Mar 2015
Interview
It involved applying online at home or at a store on one of their computers. After entering some basic info and answering some personality questions, they have you come in to the store to do a skills assessment on one of their computers. In my experience, I was asked for an interview in the store immediately after I finished the skills assessment. It was a fairly basic interview with basic questions based on your answers to the skills assessment and personality questions. I was offered a job directly after the interview.

Question 1
Why Walgreens? Name one time you failed and how you dealt with it. How do you go about working with others. Name one time you worked with/helped others. What do you do if you can't solve a problem?
The interview was arranged over the phone months after I applied. The interview itself was the next day, in-person, and took only 15 minutes or so. I was interviewed by two people.

Question 1
-Availability
-Tell me about yourself
-One mistake I've made in prior jobs and how I addressed it
-How long is your commute
They took me to the office to ask why I was interested in the job and my qualifications. It was very short and was only about 6 questions. I was in high school at the time so they did ask about my studies and work time balance.
The Walgreens interview process was really easy—quick questions, relaxed vibe, and they mostly focused on availability and customer service. It didn’t feel stressful at all. it was over the phone as well
