I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Walgreens in Oct 2014
Interview
Submitted online application, they called a day later and said to come in the closest store to take the skills assessment. As soon as I finished the assessment the assistant manager of a nearby store called and asked if I could come for an interview. A day after that interview I got a call from the manager for another interview. She hired me on the spot and said I had 48 hours to go take a drug test.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The questions were mainly behavioral questions, the only "real" interview question was "Why do you want to work for Walgreens?"
Very easy and casual interview. The hiring manager asked common interviewing questions and why I wanted to work there. They asked if I had any previous sales experience and my hours.
Fine. Basic. Asked me about past experiences that would have to do with the job. Overall felt good. Friendly. Welcoming. Was interviewing as for a sales associate position and went well.
I applied online, they got back to me in a week. Had one in-person interview which was just behavioral questions. They got back to me quickly after the interview. No other steps were need after
