I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Walgreens in Jul 2009
Interview
Met with a store manager that was in charge of hiring for the district. The interview lasted about 2 hours with me. After that interview, about a week later I was called in to interview with the district manager. That was only a 10 minute interview. I got the job offer one week after that. You have to take a drug test (urine test) within 48 hours of the offer, and they will also do a criminal background check on you. You also take a skills test on the computer. They will test you on basic math skills like if the item is $3.99 and a customer gives you $10.00, how much change do you give back? Also they will show you coupons and ask you questions regarding the coupons.
