I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at CVS Health (Milan, MI) in Dec 2015
Interview
My interview went fairly simple. The hiring manager kept things light. He asked questions that would be used to get to know me as a person and how I handle situations. It was very laid back and comfortable which I feel is important in such a high stress situation. After I was offered the position I was sent multiple emails. I felt that this part was the most confusing. There were many forms and things to be submitted. The thing I disliked most was that only Internet Explorer was supported for submitting these forms. So I had some technical issues. Other than that the process was pretty simple and I had great support from my hiring manager.
