Walgreens runs a fairly structured hiring process that varies a lot by the role and division you're applying to. Corporate roles (IT, data, finance, marketing, supply chain) typically go through a recruiter screen, one or two video interviews on Teams, and sometimes a panel or hiring-manager final. Store-level and pharmacy roles tend to be faster and more conversational.
For corporate tech and data roles, behavioral questions dominate. Walgreens has leaned into a competency-based framework, so expect classic STAR-style questions around customer impact, handling ambiguity, cross-team collaboration, and working under operational constraints. They care about scale given their roughly 8,500-store footprint, so bring examples that touch real volume or complexity.
For pharmacy and healthcare IT roles, expect some functional knowledge questions on top of behavioral. The culture signals retail-first even in corporate: execution speed, process adherence, and cost consciousness come up a lot in what interviewers value.
Timelines are generally reasonable. Most corporate candidates report 2-4 weeks from recruiter screen to offer. Feedback loops can be slow though, especially if the role involves multiple hiring stakeholders.
