pharmacy intern at kmart? 10 points!?

We Answered:

A pharmacy intern is a student enrolled in pharmacy school. You have to be a pharmacy student in order to be an intern. They usually get paid between $9.00 and $14.00 per hour. Many places hire pharmacy technicians also. To be a pharmacy technician, you usually have to take the Certified Pharmacy Technician Exam before you will get a job or have previous pharmacy experience. If you want to work in pharmacy at your age, I suggest taking a college course for pharmacy technicians and than taking the exam.

Tomorrow is my first day as an Intern at a new job.. I am very nervous, What could I expect?

We Answered:

Listen, Pay Attention, and Have Fun....Take it seriosly, but understand that you are a person and the other people want to feel at ease with people they work with, especially in small quarters. You will ultimatley have to put in more effort in the beginning to get there, but they are not going to have you run the pharmacy on day one!

You have to find the situational awareness zone - be professional but be yourself and relaxed at the same time. Don't worry, everyone goes through this.

Remember - Enjoy yourself!

How can you become a pharmacy technician at a Walgreens?

We Answered:

I was a P.T. for over 20 years. You can work into the position, but more and more people are taking the course these days. Get ahold of the books that you need to study and take the test. When I worked at Walgreens I had to put in 200 "training hours" and test. They will pay for the test and you have 3 chances in 1 year to pass. Also, once you get your permit, think about another pharmacy. Hospital pharmacy pays well, but believe it or not, the best money I ever made working pharmacy was with Fry's! Every 90 days I got and extra 40 hours on my paycheck (bonus) plus gift cert. ect. just for a job well done. Good Luck! P.S. You don't have to go to college, a trade school will get you through if you choose to go that way.

Pharmacy Intern in the U.S. Your opinion please?

We Answered:

People change their minds everyday, you have to do what is right for you, and the rest will fall into place. Any resume that can add what your choices are in the hospital will most certainly be all the better for it. I say go on with your plans, send a nice decline letter to the retail store, and go and do a knock out job at the hospital. Your profile will be enhanced for work anywhere once you complete your internship.
