I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Walgreens (Chicago, IL) in Sep 2024

Very relaxed and informal. I spoke with two people at once and they spent half the time introducing themselves. It was a 25 minute interview at first, but went over by around 10 minutes.
I applied online. I interviewed at Walgreens in Mar 2020
Interview
Unprofessional and rude.
Applied online and was contacted by a recruiter within a week or so. During the initial phone screen interview the recruiter was extremely short, hard to talk to, and asked basically no in-depth questions about my experience. During the aloted 30 minute time frame we were only on the call for 8 minutes. It felt extremely rushed and i was not able to speak about my relevant work experience.
The recruiter said that i should expect to hear back from him in regards to next steps within 5-7 days.... This interview was in March, and it is now June and I never heard anything back. Ziltch, nothing, not even an automatied rejection email.
