I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Walgreens (Paducah, KY) in Jun 2009
Interview
Found the listing online, took their skills test, consented for background check and drug screening. Got a call back about a week later to come in for an interview with the Store Manager, who passes on recommendations for Assistant Store Manager to the District Manager. Interview was very thorough (about 2 hours), and they had me drug test the same day. Starting pay varies by region (and cost of living), for my area it was $15.90 hourly, taking home 1272 biweekly (33,007 annually) plus a .50/hr premium for working overnight shifts.

Question 1
How would your coworkers describe you? How would your best friend describe you?
Be prepared to provide examples of specific previous work experience. Paint the picture with specific details to tell the story. So it feels like we are inside the example rather than just bullet points.

To give an example of an upset customer and how I chose to navigate it.
I applied and had a reference. I had 1 fairly standard interview with some straight forward questions and then using behavioral based questions. It was very friendly and a good experience. It lasted around 45 mins total.

Interview
The interview was on the computer, the manager was experienced in asking questions. I stumble over my words, I will get better in doing this type of interviews and know to relax when giving my response.
