I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Walgreens (Alton, IL) in Mar 2010
Interview
Applied online and received a phone call from the pharmacy manager a few days later. Came in to complete the assessment test, interview with pharmacy manager and received orders for drug test. Shortly after, completed computer training for one week.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Walgreens (Bellevue, WA) in Jan 2012
Interview
The interview was one of the most unprofessional experiences I have ever seen with regards to the interview process. The first individual who interviewed me hadn't booked a conference room, so we ended up moving locations three different times, as those who *had* booked showed up for their room. During that time, the first individual also answered a phone call during the interview. His demeanor was downtrodden and disinterested, with very few poignant or difficult questions. The hiring manager I interviewed with next, and while he was a nice enough guy, I can't say for sure that he had any level of faith that the company was a healthy one. Overall, the company seemed desperate to hire anyone with a pulse, and I attribute that to the fact that the current junior engineer was indeed lacking that requirement.

There weren't any unexpected or difficult questions.
I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Walgreens in Feb 2011
Interview
The interview was pretty laid back, more like a conversation. We talked about my interests and how I managed my schedule. There were some questions about past experience, where I see myself in the long run, why pharmacy. After the interview, I was told to fill out an online application. A few weeks later, I received an e-mail about the job offer as well as a letter through the mail.
