When I applied I had no retail or pharmacy related experience. Applied Online twice (application expired the first time because of the 90 day app life cycle). Was not called for an interview during the application period. After reapplying the second time, I got a phone call to come in for an interview 2-3 weeks later. The day of my interview I was asked to complete the computer assessment. This is very easy it requires basic math (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division), alphabetizing and matching skills. Honestly you don't need a calculator. If you do then the job will be tough on you (you will need to enter scripts on the computer and calculate day supply, etc). This portion takes around 10-15 mins but you are not given any time-limit. The next piece is the actual interview. You are asked a series of standardized questions which are the same for all new prospects. These questions are not technical. They are questions about yourself and how you handle stress. I was asked around 10-12 questions which were all stated word-per-word in other reviews mentioned here. This segment takes around 30-45 mins. After that they tell you that they have other interviews to conduct but they will let you know if you got the job after they are all finished. I think this is just a way to get rid of you so you wont bother them. **TIP** Before they start the interview they say that you can take some time to answer the questions but try to answer the questions as fast as possible. You are graded on your ability to come up with quick answers (on a scale of 1 - 10). Three days later I got called again asking me to come in for a drug test. They gave me a document which is valid for 24hrs, I went to the nearest Quest-Diagnostics Testing Center and completed it. Waited another 3-4 days before getting another call that I was cleared and I started the job the next day.

Straightforward, started off with introductions. Focused on experience, comfortability with learning new skills, interest in healthcare and Walgreens as a company. It was important to show how and why you’re interested in healthcare.
