I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Walgreens (New York, NY) in Apr 2016
Interview
Very quick, same day the application was submitted. It wasn't planned, but the manager asked if I was okay with having the interview right then and there. The first part was having me fill out an online test asking questions regarding being at the cash register, dealing with customers, etc.

Question 1
Explain a time you had to overcome a difficult situation
The interview was arranged over the phone months after I applied. The interview itself was the next day, in-person, and took only 15 minutes or so. I was interviewed by two people.

Question 1
-Availability
-Tell me about yourself
-One mistake I've made in prior jobs and how I addressed it
-How long is your commute
They took me to the office to ask why I was interested in the job and my qualifications. It was very short and was only about 6 questions. I was in high school at the time so they did ask about my studies and work time balance.
The Walgreens interview process was really easy—quick questions, relaxed vibe, and they mostly focused on availability and customer service. It didn’t feel stressful at all. it was over the phone as well
