I probably already know the answer to this question but here goes anyway ..
Well as we know Pharm is saturated. I’m only a P1 but I do want to do residency so I’m trying my best to maintain a good GPA etc etc. In the off chance I don’t get residency I’ll probably be working retail like many others, fine.
When I tell my classmates that I worry about not finding a job when I graduate they tell me I’m crazy because by the time I graduate I’ll have 15 years of pharm experience so it won’t be a struggle.. Will that matter though? I feel like I’ll be the same as the person coming out that has never have worked a day in a Pharmacy because mine is tech & now intern experience.. not actual Pharmacist.
Thoughts? I know nobody is guaranteed a job but in terms of experience, will my 15 years of experience count at all because it’s not as a pharmacist?
