What are your long-term goals as a pharmacist and can Walgreens help you achieve these goals?
Walgreens prioritizes hiring pharmacists that are highly motivated and goal-driven in their careers. This question is being asked to allow your interviewer to hear about your professional goals as a pharmacist. They also want to ensure that your goals closely align with a long-term career at Walgreens.
"My long-term goal is to be a leader, innovator, and educator in the pharmacy world and I know that Walgreens is a great place to help see this goal come true. If hired as your next pharmacist, you'll quickly see that my leadership skills are encompassed in my clinical knowledge, excellent communication skills, and great customer service attitude that I will bring to the Walgreens team."
Keep these goals professional goals and not personal. Prior to your interview with Walgreens, put some thought into your long-term career goals. If you see yourself in a leadership position down the road, don't hesitate to talk about that goal and how you plan to get there.
