Advanced or Graduate DegreeWalgreens Interview Questions
Most companies take you out to lunch or dinner. If you have a pharmacy degree, you can be hired anywhere. It's more like you are interviewing them to see if you want to work for them. I never had an interview at Walgreens. I just called them up & said I wanted to work for them.
Working Conditions
It can be very stressful at times when it gets busy and we are short staffed. We fill anywhere from 130-350 prescriptions a day. And some of the patients can be rude, but it's very rewarding when you do make a positive difference in someone's health - through education them about their medication, intervening on serious drug interactions.
