I'm currently a Pharmacy major in undergrad at Chapel Hill. I've always wanted to do pharmacy since the beginning of high school but on the other hand I do want to be smart about my career choice. I've heard a lot of people say the pharmacy field is so congested and over saturated so badly that its hard to get a job and there's no more six figure job offers straight out of pharmacy school. Is this true for North Carolina in areas like Charlotte, Burlington or Greensboro? And also how are the job prospects for someone who did pharmacy lab internships and became a certified pharmacy technician and completed undergrad and pharmacy school at Chapel Hill? (which is the #2 pharmacy school in the country.) I also want to know if even there are any six figure jobs left (in retail or clinical pharmacy) are they long term as in 5-10 years or more? I just want to be smart about my career choice because financially its a heavy burden to become a pharmacist and have my options open. I've also heard positive things such as someone being offered a $115,000 job which she happily accepted but I don't know if its in North Carolina.
