Pharmacist Interview

Pharmacist Interview

During your interview you will be asked a lot of questions so it is important to mentally prepare for this.

Remember to make sure your answers are well thought out rather than learnt so it sounds like you are reading from a script, you must make your answers part of a further conversation.

For a pharmacy interview I would expect to be asked questions such as:
What practice areas are you interested in? Have you had any clinical experience? Have you had any hospital or retail experience depending on the setting and describe that? What is a major issue facing the pharmacy industry today? Make sure you know all about your subject. Have you ever had an incident in a clinic, with a doctor etc and how did you handle it? And more general getting to know about you questions such as:
How would your colleagues describe you? Are you interested in relocating for the right position? How do you handle stress/pressure? Tell me about yourself? What are your strengths and weaknesses? Please remember to think about this one carefully before any interview, its all most certainly going to be asked and its embarrassing when you cannot answer it. Where do you see yourself in five years? What makes you think you are best qualified for this role? Tell me about one situation you handled well and one situation you did not handle well and how you dealt with both of these situations? Some questions can seem very tough but its for the employer to know how you handle these situations which is why I cannot stress enough how preparation is the key.

Here are the basic requirements to become a Pharmacist in the UK:
a four-year Master of Pharmacy (MPharm) degreea one-year pre-registration training course in a pharmacya registration examMost asked interview questions:

Why should we hire you?
Tell me about yourself
What do you expect from a Supervisor?
Why do you want this job?
Describe a typical work week?
Give some examples of team work!
What are your salary expectations?

Good luck.

    Pharmacists are very helpful and i would say it was something to consider, however as you need a degree then you will really need to be thinking about this early, ie when you are first picking your options at GCSE level (or whatever will replace them).
