I applied through university. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Walgreens (Rockville, MD) in Apr 2013
Interview
Applied in January. Heard back in April. Received a call from a store manager to come in to a store to finish application. Went in and was tested on various topics such as customer service and even math. Received a call a few days later notifying me that I passed the test and asking me to come in for an actual interview. Interview was pretty easy, questions on previous experience in customer service and my career goals in the future. It was a pretty standard interview.
There is online training that has to be done, you can either complete it on their website by logging in, or they have you do it in the office before your interview. After that they interview you, by asking a series of questions

Question 1
What kind of management style do you think is the best?
Friendly and encouraging, easy flow of conversation. One of the better interviews I've ever had. Reviewing the STAR/behavioral interview process was helpful, but Walgreens also informs you before the interview and right at the beginning of the interview what to expect. Also was informed of the next steps assuming the hiring process went forward once the interview was done, which was nice
