I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Kroger (Columbus, OH) in Oct 2013
Interview
First contact was at local store, very courteous even though pharmacist on duty was busy. I was able to leave a message with the (district) pharmacy coordinator, who called me back. She kindly met me at one of the stores for interview; gave me a description of the job.

I applied online. I interviewed at Kroger (Detroit, MI) in Apr 2024
Interview
It was respectful, covers all aspects of a staff pharmacist duties, it covered daily operations, customer satisfaction leadership and mentoring. At the time they required experience which i did not have.
Interviewed with district manager. Thirty minute interview. Pretty simple and straight forward interview process. Questions are not trying to trick you. The basic “tell me about a time..”. Just be confident in yourself.

I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Kroger (Jackson, MS) in Nov 2019
Interview
It was a very laid back interview. They just asked general questions about myself and past pharmacy experience I had. They also asked about any kind of clinical experience i had like with vaccinations. It was not a hard interview.
