Hey there, just this quarter I got an internship at a pharmacy inside a nearby Rite Aid. Today, the pharmacists said I've been doing a great job and asked if I'd like to work there as a paid pharmacy cashier. My question is how will a pharmacy school see this?
Will I be seen as getting pharmacy experience or should I decline it so I can be seen as a pharmacy intern? As a cashier I will have the same basic duties as the intern, but a lot more involved duties as well. I will never been out of the pharmacy but I'm just afraid of how a pharmacy school may see this as just a Rite-Aid cashier job.
This is my first internship in pharmacy, unfortunately I've had such a busy school schedule since freshman year that I haven't been able to fit one in until now as a senior. I do plan on taking a year break, I may need it to take some lower division classes required by some schools, but I do plan on doing more internship or perhaps sticking with this pharmacy job.
Thanks in advance.
