I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Walgreens
Interview
I heard about the opportunity at a school job fair. I dropped an application online and needed to fill out a survey. I was notified by email that I had been selected for an interview. The interview was held on campus and was comprised of about 10 easy behavioral questions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
There really were no hard questions in the interview. The one I had to think about for a moment was "Tell me about a time where you had to urge a group of people to avoid taking the easy way out."
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Walgreens (Phoenix, AZ) in Mar 2008
Interview
They will hire anybody apparently since management is the worst. Basically you apply online and do an assesment, then they call you and do a simple interview.
I applied through other source. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Walgreens
Interview
it is very hard to find open positions through their "computer program/ network". The positions get filled in quickly, quietly and secretly by referral by other general managers. But if you do hear about an interview, and go to one, it is to just to make you feel that you had a chance like the rest.
That is why going to an interview without being a "favorite" or an "ass-kisser" will just lead to a waste of time. "Favorites" get an unfair advantage of being given the possible interview questions - which are the "situational" type of questions (give me an example of a time when you....helped out a customer).
These responses can be totally made up, (as with any response in any interview) but will be the determining factor . Hence, the subjective process which favors "premeditated hiring" . The things that count... such as length of employment there, education (college degree) , work ethic, (participating in "truck" or "warehouse receiving" - which is the physically most demanding part of the job) , and everything else that is real ... DOESN"T COUNT.
To be promoted in this company, be prepared to kiss major ass or you will be surpassed by those who do.

Question 1
Give me a time when you had to "bend" the rules for customer service.
This is a tricky question because it can go two ways. 1) you made a good decision doing that. 2) you violated policy, or went against the "rules" - which can lead to trouble.
