I am a high school senior that is interested in becoming a pharmacist, but I don't want to sign up for a 6-8 year program until I get at least a little experience under my belt. I am not certified as a pharmacy technician, but I do hear that some retail chains will provide this training for you as long as you work for them for a certain amount of time.
I have four different chains that have a pharmacy within 10-15 minutes of my house. They are Wal-Mart, CVS, Rite-Aid, and a Harris Teeter. There's also a Walgreen's, but they're having a hiring freeze...
What experiences have you had with these chains? What are my chances with getting a job in this market?
If it helps at all, I'm in central North Carolina, but I've never had a formal job anywhere... I have tutored and would probably be able to use their parents as references.
