The hiring process was standard. They ask you the normal questions any company would ask, and you take a skills test.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
There was not really any unexpected question, I had family members who had been hired initially at the store I applied. So in my case the only thing that caught me of guard was when the manager interviewing me said " You are destined for greatness" that was the only time I was nervous. If you get to an interview you passed the skills. They need you as much as you need them. So my advice be you show them your great personality.
I applied online. I interviewed at Walgreens (Wheeling, IL) in Jun 2026
Interview
I applied online and was contacted to schedule an interview. The interview was straightforward and mostly focused on my availability, customer service experience, teamwork, and why I wanted to work in a pharmacy setting. They asked behavioral questions about handling difficult customers, working with coworkers, and staying organized in a busy environment. The pharmacist interviewed me and was professional, explained the role, expectations, and next steps clearly. The store manager was also present and took notes. I am still waiting to hear back about an offer.

Question 1
Take me through a day in the life of your previous place of employment.
Very easy and laid back interview process. Unfortunately, Walgreens doesn’t have a great retention rate so they hire who they can as long as you tell them you have an interest in working long term.
