The company recently launched "Grad@Loblaw" for new graduates, providing participants with full benefits and pay, and allowing them to rotate through multiple streams such as store management, supply chain, merchandising, marketing, IT, finance, and human resources. As a result, the company has hired nearly 100 new graduates in the past year. Employees across the company may also contact Loblaw Chairman Galen Weston directly through "Ask Galen" on the company intranet -- messages are usually answered within a period of one week.
