There are some recruiters put jobs for temp contracts 4-6 months as mail Rx services. Does anybody know what's the deal with that?

those are the only job offers ive had in 2 years. nothing but temp jobs. i dont know if its better to keep the part time job i have now or risk taking a temp job that "may" turn into full time if they like you.

i havent accepted any of those job offers. Right now Im part time but its a sure thing. Im afraid to take a temp job and be unemployed in 4 months. Most of the offers have been for mail order pharmacies.

The thing with temp agencies is that if you did good in one position, they try to line you up with another position when that one is gonna end.
 
Does anyone have any opinion or stats on per diem or contract rates for independent pharmacies? I'm hearing some crazy numbers that the staffing agencies are charging and was wondering if anyone knew any specific numbers or has had to contract with one.
 
I'm working as a per diem/contract pharmacist and I think I've priced myself too low at $60 and going to be renegotiating. Does anyone know of any links on current rates?
