First year pharmacy student looking for advice
Hello everyone! I’m a first year pharmacy student and having a difficult time finding a job while I’m in school. I’m currently doing my required retail internship every week which is unpaid and was not enough to build my confidence and speed. I also doubt that the manager is gonna hire me after my internship ends since their team seems pretty full. I’m also not as fast as an experienced pharmacy assistant and I have a feeling that employers would rather hire experienced assistants rather than first year pharmacy students. What can I do to land a pharmacy assistant job while I’m in school to gain retail experience before I graduate? Should I just volunteer in the hopes of landing a job later on?
