Work Experience

[lduong]

I'm trying to decide how much information I need to write about my work experiences on PharmCAS. For instance, if I worked as a pharmacy technician do I even need to include a brief description since it is pretty obvious already? How about lab assistant? I would probably need to include what the study is about, no? Thanks for your help 🙂

Describe everything, especially aspects that set you apart. Did you help train new employees? What about communication skills?
As a lab assistant, what were your respnsibilities?
Think in terms of the skills you acquired at each job.

Anything you did as a pharmacy tech that was unique is worth mentioning. Did you help train others? Were you in any kind of senior-ish position? If patient interaction is something you're good at, you might mention it. (like calming down a patient who doesn't understand why his Viagra's not covered)
