Hi everyone, I am currently about to graduate from pharmacy school in the States with a Doctor of Pharmacy degree. Just wondering if it's easy for pharmacy graduates to get jobs in any of the major cities in Australia (Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, etc.) after passing the required exams and legal requirements.

I have no idea if it's easy but I know one American pharmacist here in Sydney.

Do u know what sort of process he had to go through in order to practice in Australia and whether or not it was a time consuming process? Also, I've heard pharmacists only make around 50-60k a year in Australia, which is half of what most pharmacists start out at in the States. Is this true?
