I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Walgreens (Philadelphia, PA) in May 2011
Interview
I took the online placement test and was then called in to do a skills test in the store. After passing the skills test I had a 1:1 interview during which I was offered a job.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Would you follow protocol or trust your own opinion in certain situations.
There was only one interview required after filling out the online form. I spoke with the store owner/manager and heard back quickly. A drug test is the next and final step.

Question 1
Asked questions about communication, examples of challenges.
It was very easy and laid back, I still dressed the part but the location mostly hired young adults and high schoolers anyways, so the bar was not super high to begin with.
It was simple and easy. The store manager promptly followed up with me and scheduled an interview that consisted of normal interview questions. I then moved into the onboarding process.
