I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Walgreens (Edmond, OK) in May 2010
Interview
I honestly just chatted with the store manager. We mostly talked about sports as we were both chicago natives. The hiring process has changed a lot since then. You are now required to take a skills assessment test that can take over an hour. The managers is also given a list of questions that they must ask and record whether or not the answer was good or bad.
The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Walgreens (Norwich, CT) in Jun 2011
Interview
I had an interview at walgreens a few days ago, the woman there called me in. She is very down to Earth and sweet. I had no problem talking to her. We sat in their cramped office there and just talked, she was very open and understanding, and a great person to talk to. They seemed to really listen to me. I havent been offically hired yet, the drug test results literally take FOREVER, but of course, im clean anyway, haha. So, right now, Im just waiting to hear back from them. I find them all very kind curteous people...so far, you know?

I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Walgreens (Coon Rapids, MN) in Dec 2010
Interview
I applied online and got a call back the next day from the store manager who asked me to come in to do a skills test. I came in that day to complete the test, then immediately after, I went through the interview process. I was asked about the things I did at my previous jobs and of how I would handle working overnight while having commitments during the day. I was also asked if I had ever been let go by a past employer and why. The personality questions consisted of my interest in Walgreens and my view to be successful in life. I was then given a call back 3 days later. They were interested in hiring me and my background check was cleared at that time, so I was asked to come in to get information to do the drug test. After that was done, I got a call back once they got the results, which was 2 days later. They then asked me to come in again to set up my first schedule and do paperwork.
