Pharmacy Clerk?

We Answered:

They are interested in hiring you or they would not be asking you how old you are, etc.

If you are unsure of exactly how much the position pays, you should state $5.85 an hour, or miniumum wage, and they will adjust the pay to what ever the position actually pays; however, you don't want to ask for too much an hour as it does not look good.

It is extremely likely that you will get hired because you are all ready "working" there and they know your record.

Good luck!

Nellie Said:

when having a job as a pharmacy clerk are you covered by health insurance?

We Answered:

Employee health insurance is something covered/ determined by whoever you work for and their terms. The large chains (CVS, Walgreens and grocers with pharmacies) all have employee health insurance but they have rules on who qualifies ( FT-40hrs/wk, PT employees who work a specified number of hrs per week), a small independent store may not have any benefits at all. The level of coverage also differs; employees in hospital pharmacies have better benefits than those in retail stores.

Like any other job, the benefits are determined by the employer so you can't choose a profession based on whether or not you will be covered by an employer's policy. Always ask when negotiating salary being able to get covered by a good employer's plan is better than making another $1 or $2 per hour especially if they pay for part of it.

How to get a job as a pharmacy clerk?

We Answered:

I think that's a great idea. If you have made a solid decision to become a pharmacy technician, make that clear on your resume and let the people know it when you apply or interview.

If you are a clerk, you will have some experience behind you when you become a certified technician. Additionally, you'll probably get through the training program more easily because you'll be working around the drug names and scenarios that are taught.

It is a good career choice, I commend your decision.
