      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at CVS Health (Santa Barbara, CA) in Jun 2014

      Interview

      I applied online through their careers website. I also had to take an interactive lesson thing - I forgot what it was called, but I think it's meant to see if you're a good fit for CVS. Every answer you put in is a score. I think the higher your score, the more likely it is you'll get an interview.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      -Why do you want to work for CVS? -What are some of your skills? -What's your WPM? -Explain a time when you were in a high-stress environment.
      Answer question
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at CVS Health (Los Angeles, CA) in Nov 2017

      Interview

      Short, simple, and one defining question: What is a pharmacy to you? I answered: It's like a drug library, right? Where people go in, get the meds that they were prescribed and come back in monthly.
