As a pharmacist at Walgreens, you will be critical communicator with your pharmacy teams and the customers using the pharmacy. It is important for your interview to know which type of communicator you are in order to effectively communicate with all of the individuals you will be talking with on a daily basis.

"I'm a very clear and direct communicator and have always been. Patients that I work with really appreciate that I do this with an empathetic approach. With my pharmacy colleagues, my direct communication style helps to lead others and ensure that things get done without delay. If needed, I am able to have difficult conversations with colleagues. Conversely, I also love the day-to-day chit-chat of getting to know my colleagues and becoming lifelong friends."

Put some thought into whether consider your communication style analytical, intuitive, functional, or personal. Tell the interviewer that you are able to change your communication style based on who you are addressing and their way of learning. The important thing to relay is that you are an effective communicator and that you welcome the back and forth with your customers and colleagues.
