Hello all, I just got my license on 1/10 after having to wait to be able to afford and take the NAPLEX/MPJE for the first time--tons of stress with family financial crises that never seem to end. I have been applying everywhere in the Tampa area for the last month, but I have had no offers yet. I had an interview for a central order pharmacist from a referral, and now they have the job on hold. I only hope for Florida Hospital to come through, I have been waiting for a response back from them. Despite me not having a residency, I have heard new grads get hired at FH and Bayfront, so I do not want to give up hope for a clinical position, my desired career path. It is frustrating I cannot move out of the area due to my living/transportation situation, so I really need to find a job here. I was wondering if anyone had experience with applying to CVS/Walgreens in this area and how difficult it is to get a job? Also, which company is better in terms of starting out new? I have sent in an app to CVS for a floater position and have completed my Walgreens apps. I am hoping to start somewhere so I can get the experience these hospital pharmacy employers apparently desire, and will move on once that happens. Thank you.
