I applied online. I interviewed at Walgreens (Washington, DC) in Mar 2021
Interview
Abysmal recruiting for at least the corporate roles. First the phone screen is conducted by someone who doesn't speak English well so its hard to communicate and answer questions they ask during the call. They will not tell you the salary either for the role and do not answer many questions as they do not know (its a rushed call). Walgreens only sends automated emails during their recruiting process too so its difficult to even ask questions during the hiring process. After going through many interviews, they ghost you. Just terrible recruitment department at this company and makes it not worth recommending others to apply there.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How ones background relates to role and why this role, etc.
Multi stage interview consisting of screen, hiring manager and multiple panels. Relatively standard but a lot of questions around the role and situational scenarios on how projects and leadership should be conducted

Question 1
Describe a time you encountered a difficult team member and how did you approach it
initial screening call with recruiter, 1-1 video interview with manager on team (about your experience/background), final round is a panel interview (first 30-min are with 2 people (asking you questions about yourself), you present your deck for 10 min, then 10 min q&a, then final 30 min interview with other 2 panelists.

Question 1
What is one project/task you completed that you feel most proud of?
Behavioral questions and you go through recruiter screen, first round, and final round is a “surprise” case give 24 hours before. Seems like they’re screening more to see how you handle pressure and large workload rather than quality and skill. Also I was told not to spend “more than 1-2 hours” on it which was unrealistic given the case (in my opinion). To each their own, just wasn’t a fit for me.
