I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at CVS Health (San Francisco, CA)
Interview
Applied online to a lot of stores in the SF/SJ area. Got a call back from the manager of one of the stores after around 3 weeks to set up a in store interview for the same week. Interviewed with both the store manager and the pharmacy supervisor. The pharmacy supervisor asked most of the questions while the manager jumped in once in a while. The interview lasted about 45 minutes. At the end of the interview, the store manager said he'd call me by the next week to let me know I got the job. He called back during the next week and offered me the job.
