"One critical issue that faces the pharmaceutical industry today is the cost of medications. I hate that there are patients that don't have the ability to pay for their medications. I hope that I can be a part of changing this one day."

Come to your interviewer with Walgreens prepared to discuss one or two major issues that the pharmacy field is facing, particularly any that could have a direct impact on the business at Walgreens. This question is a great way to start the back and forth with the interviewer. Go ahead and turn the tables and encourage them to engage in your feedback and ask what critical issues they are currently seeing and forecasting into the future.
