So I live in Florida (P4 Student) and I did not receive a grad intern offer at my retail job in my home state.. Applied out of state to every major metro in the US and the only offer I received was in San Francisco at Walgreens (grad intern) @ $32h with 64-80 hour weeks at various pharmacies. I have the following questions:
Any any other advice you can throw my way. I wouldnt be doing this if i didnt have any other choice but considering i've applied throughout my entire state this is what I have to work with...
- how many hours are new floaters getting? I want to at least be able to pay rent+minimums on loans
- what's the pay like for new pharmacists? is it at least a bit higher considering the stupid COL of this city?
- CPJE! I hear this is a bitch compared to the MPJE... what do i need to do differently?
- Do I need to live relatively close to the city? Parking seems to be a bitch and very expensive so I'm not sure how i'd be able to commute by car.. it seems public transport is the best option
- Is the tenderloin as bad as people say it is? Are there any parts that are safe/safer?
Any any other advice you can throw my way. I wouldnt be doing this if i didnt have any other choice but considering i've applied throughout my entire state this is what I have to work with...
