The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Walgreens (Deerfield, IL) in Jan 2012
Interview
I only had one interview with Walgreens after applying to their Merchandising Analyst Rotational Program. There were a series of standard questions, asking to draw on my experiences. An example is, "Can you describe a time when you used financial analysis for a project?" Overall, I (personally) felt that I hadn't prepared well enough for the interview because I did not have examples or stories prepared for such questions. HR was friendly.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about yourself and why you applied to this position.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Walgreens in Jul 2011
Interview
1/ Complete Online application.
2/ In store part two of application.
3/ Called in for interview.
4/ Job offer.
That was my story.
In other areas and with other Regional Managers the format after "passing" the computer based parts of the application and interview might well be different.
I had one main interview with a Senior Manager, some are interviewed by a panel of Managers others have more than one interview that may include the Regional Manager for your area as well.
I have spoken with staff that have experienced all of these different techniques and styles.
Everyone, at every stage was polite and helpful.
Setting you up to succeed rather than fail.
A positive experience.
