Who is the CEO of Walgreens?
Before any job interview, you must research the company you are interviewing with. You want to learn all you can to answer any questions the interviewer will have. Review the company website, online employee reviews, the job announcement, and visit the company and talk to staff. The interviewer wants to hear that you have done your homework and know the CEO of Walgreens.
Show the interviewer you have done in-depth research on their company. Focus your answer on naming the CEO of Walgreens and a little history about them. You can mention when they were appointed CEO, who they worked for before Walgreens, and any achievements they have made since becoming CEO.
Avoid being unable to name the CEO of Walgreens. If you cannot name the current CEO, it is evident to the interviewer that you did not do your research and may not pay close attention to detail.
"The CEO of Walgreens is Rosalind Brewer, but she prefers to go by Roz. Ms. Brewer was appointed CEO and member of the Board of Directors in 2021 and has already reshaped the company in her short tenure. I found it very interesting that Ms. Brewer leads more than 450,000 colleagues in her new role."
