So I am a P4 who is currently on rotations but I am also going through the Match process for a residency. Ultimately I would love to specialize in ID, but I know I would be happy with any inpatient or general clinical pharmacist role.
So far, I have had only one interview for a PGY-1 program and I think it went well and that I might have a really good chance at a residency for this upcoming residency "year". That being said, my current rotation site has thrown a wrench into my plans regarding my professional future. I have been at my current site, a rural hospital, for the past few months completing two of my APPE blocks and it has been absolutely wonderful. So much so that I would absolutely love to work here simply because of everything I have witnessed and been able to do while here.
What throws a wrench into my residency plans is that my preceptor and the director of pharmacy are both actively campaigning to get another FTE position for the pharmacy specifically for me to the VP who oversees this department. In addition to that, I have multiple floors of nursing lobbying and have even gotten the Chief Nursing Officer to lobby the VP for me simply because of my work with patients and with the nurses. All in all, I feel I have a great chance of being offered a job at this hospital for a FTE inpatient pharmacist position.
So I guess what I'm saying is, what have some of you done in your experiences and what might you recommend to me?
