Hey guys, I have been working at Walmart as a pharmacy technician for a year and a half. I was told that i have to finish one year of pharmacy school to be considered an intern. I have finished my first year of pharmacy school, but they have not changed my status to an intern, which is bothering me. I gave the district manager all the things he asked for, but he said that he changed it but i haven't received a raise with it, and my job code is the same as it has always been. I'm not sure what i need to do, but honestly i'm getting really frustrated of this? Does any work at Walmart as an intern, and how long did the process take to take you as a intern, and please let me know what i need to do

Hey! I did not work for walmart, but I did have a similar situation to yours at Walgreens. How long ago did your district manager change you in the system? Mine took about 2 pay periods to have that effectively changed. And then every single year it was the same thing when I was getting a raise (i.e PY1 to PY2 to PY3 etc.) I remember getting anxious because I wanted to start counting my intern hours (you can't do that before you're classified as an intern) but trust me you have so much time to gain all the hours!

I would give it about 2-4 weeks from my experience but Walmart systems could be different.

Ask the personnel manager.
