I have a friend who just had an interview and he had been asked these questions:
1) Imagine you are a pharmacist and a male client came in. He has bruises, in a dirty clothes and looks bad. What would you do?

2) Imagine a woman came in, she does not have a prescription refill, but she needs drugs for her heart... What would you do?

3) Imagine a man came in and he has no money but needs a drug for blood pressure. What would you do?

4) What are the problems in modern pharmacy field?

5) If you were in Government, how would you fix those problems?

6) My daughter is having a problem with her school teacher, what would you advice me to do?

7) What are your strengths?

8) weaknesses?

9) the worst scenario that you have had in your pharm-tech (or work) experience?

10) what irritates you?

11) what do you dislike in a work field?

12) What makes you stressed out?

13) why should we accept you over other candidats?

14) what kind of schedule do you prefer- very busy, or relaxed?

15) Imagine you are a pharmacist and your co-worker told you something about him/her that is bad (like your co-worker stole something from the pharmacy, or he/she hooked on drugs), would you go to your boss and tell him/her?

How would you guys answer them?
 
Most of those questions are irrelevant. Who cares how a daughter feels about her teacher. In most states if not all state, if even your mother came faking a heart attack, unless she has a prescription, you can't give her anything. I'm surprised they don't ask the question: What would you do if for something reason drugs companies decide to bypass the pharmacist altogether and have a computer dispense the drugs with the help of a pharm tech. Don't hawk on me for bringing up this topic. Most large pharmacy now have computer sorting and bottling the drugs. I don't think it would be unreasonable to suggest that a computer can do the job of a pharmacist. Lets face it, computers have endless memory, make few if not no mistakes, and in the long run cheaper. If you can do surgery from across the country using a computer, I don't think it's that hard to replace a pharmacist with one. It's just a matter of how people will react to them.
 
Some of these questions are very difficult to answer🙁
