The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Walgreens (San Mateo, CA) in Jun 2009
Interview
applied online, went to a nearby walgreens to finish up the second part of the interview, which was the assessment test. Consisted of general knowledge of conversions, reading rx, and identifying the generic names of different drugs. Got a call from the district manager a week later and came into a one on one interview. Asked general questions and I had to do another test with conversions, pharmaceutical terms, and naming the generic brands.

I applied online. I interviewed at Walgreens (Wheeling, IL) in Jun 2026
Interview
I applied online and was contacted to schedule an interview. The interview was straightforward and mostly focused on my availability, customer service experience, teamwork, and why I wanted to work in a pharmacy setting. They asked behavioral questions about handling difficult customers, working with coworkers, and staying organized in a busy environment. The pharmacist interviewed me and was professional, explained the role, expectations, and next steps clearly. The store manager was also present and took notes. I am still waiting to hear back about an offer.
