I'm a third year pharmacy student and I don't have any work experience at all (high school and college)...is it possible to get a job as a pharmacy student without any experience? So far, it hasn't worked...

I think it depends on the area you're in. Where do you live?

Why not intern at a pharmacy? We have internship fairs at our school every year with both retail & hospital positions. The hospital ones are competitive, but just about anyone can do retail.

Go to your nearest pharmacy and get the name/phone/email of the district manager for the area. Contact him/her and say that you are interested in working for their company when you graduate and would like to intern there.

In Phoenix, all you need is a pulse rate and an Intern License for a retail job.

Check with chain stores in your area.
