I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Walgreens (Milwaukee, WI)
Interview
I filled out the application online and since the Walgreens I worked for is in my neighborhood, I actually went there and spoke with a manager. The manager pulled my application at that moment in his office, (fairly small, but cool, and very comfortable to me) and asked me to come in for an interview the next day. I dressed in business attire and did my interview. He asked me a list of questions that I really can not remember to save my life. The interview went well. I called him maybe 2-3 days later and he said I had gotten the job. I took a drug test and called him that Saturday and started that Monday.

Question 1
What is the most difficult obstacle you have had to overcome?
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Walgreens (Anaheim, CA)
Interview
I applied online to multiple locations, completed an in store qualification/skills test and my nearest Walgreens. I was called in for an interview at another location, but I didn't mind the couple mile commute. I arrived early, and the interview started on time. The manager was friendly, yet professional. She asked questions about my previous work experiences and my reasons for choosing Walgreens. I prepared by writing out three true stories about my previous job which covered a variety of common interviewer questions. I was told that I would be contacted within two weeks but instead received a call and job offer the next day! :)

Pretty common questions like: What would you do if you saw someone stealing from the company? or What is your greatest strength/weakness?
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Walgreens (San Antonio, TX) in Mar 2009
Interview
Filled out online application. Called in for an interview two days later. Took a pre-employment assessment to determine mathematical and cash handling skills. Passed assessment and was asked to supply three references. Once references were verified I was required to take a drug screening test. Passed drug test and was hired to begin training the next week.
