Hey. I have my pharmacy interviews coming up in March and am going over
some of the sample questions. All the school seem to have similar questions.
Can anyone help me out with questions for me to ask at the interview. A brainstorming
session would be great. Just throw anything out there because my mind is going blank
and everything I read suggests that the interviewee comes prepared to ask questions.

I actually made a thread about this a month ago or so (not trying to imply you use the search function or anything lol) and I was in virtually the same situation as you are in, except that I was quite paranoid on the thought of acting like I was already accepted!

From what those people posted, you're there to see what the school has to offer for you. Highly recommended to ask questions about internships, rotations and overall ability to network with pharmacists. With the students, you could probably ask them how classes are structured, why they picked this school over others, blah blah blah.

It's kind of the gist, but I'm sure you get the point.

Do some research on the school and ask something directly related. Ask about certain research projects going on because a lot of the time a faculty will be interviewing you. Hope this helps.

go prepared with some questions to throw at the end of the interview, 2-3 questions would be great.
few questions that I asked at all the interviews:
1-what type of clinical rotations does the school offers?
2-due to increase difficulty of finding jobs nowadays. does the school offers any type of resources to find jobs for graduating pharmacist? (they liked this one)
3-what percentage of your graduating class find a full time job?

hope that helps..🙂

my general go-to questions were:
1. what are some leadership opportunitities available through the school or thru orgs?
2. what are some research ops (if you are actually interested in research)?
3. what are some community outreach programs pharm students participate in?

i've asked these at all of my interviews so far, and they seem to encourage long and informative answers!
