PharmD student Intern pay

This really belongs in the pharmacy forum. Let me move it for you.
13ish per hour seems pretty normal round here.
Really?? My friend, P2, is getting $21/hr. I guess it depends on where.
12/14/16/18 depending on your year in school.
That's nothing.
I have a friend that makes $50/hour as a P1 and he gets all the free Vicodin he wants.
I kid. Yes it is highly variable based on where you live and what kind of work you find. $21 is extremely high, your friend is doing very well for himself.
Unscientific survey:
Retail in CA: $18-22/hr depending on year
Hospitals on the east coast: $16-18/hr (i'm somewhere in the middle there)

What KMA do you work in? That's not accurate where I work.
I'm pulling down 13/hr as a P2. Was offered 16.50 an hour at a hospital but turned it down (night shifts and not enough hours).

Don't they pay 11 for P1s and then $1 more for every year after?
Highly variable depending on region, practice setting, experience, and school year.
Personally ive gotten $15 at my hospital and nuke jobs.
As far as what I've heard , so to speak, from friends and contacts, id think you could expect $12-20 for retail and $14-25 for hospital depending on the previously listed factors.
Yes I know a couple hospital guys making in the mid 20s but they are expected to work 15-20 hrs / week including nights. Average # for retail I hear thrown around is about $13 ish , but usually with a much more easy and flexible schedule
Hth . And BTW , don't expect to negotiate intern salaries, they are fixed for the most part unless you are bringing something really special to the table

No, here in my KMA you start at $12 as a P1 and go up $2 per year thereafter.
Smith's. I'm curious what Fry's and Ralph's pay their interns.
P1, just got the paperwork done and bumped to $12.50.

Other thing you have to remember is students can be interns and have different amounts of responsibility which will greatly affect what they make.
21/hr - hospital
places are hiring starting at 25/hr in retail if you can commute to an underserved area. For us Arizonans, underserved areas are not really that far away - maybe 45min to an hour drive. For 25 an hour and an 8-10 hour shift (plus the experience), I think it is worth it. That's an extra ~800 bucks a month.

Me too buddy. Can't help but wonder how we might go about getting one of those 20+ jobs.
Well, 12 at the hospital, 14.50 at CVS. Hardly anything to brag about.
Back in the day when I was in pharmacy school (graduated in '94), I made minimum wage as a pharmacy intern and $11 /hr as a graduate intern at a chain pharmacy. I don't think the interns at the hospital I work at make much more than $12/hr. This is in the middle of nowhere midwest.
anyone knows the rates in nyc? for p3,p4,p5,p6 (professional phase 1-4) in retail?
The most I ever made was $15/hour at the VA. It was several dollars more than either of my retail gigs. No idea what retail is paying now.
