Rph28 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 I just want to ask if any of u guys know why is it so hard to find an pharmacy internship for a foreign graduate at this time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lamak Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 Time has changed as it always does. You will be lucky if anyone can take you in as a volunteer. There is a surplus of pharmacists now in most places. Chains are not expanding at the same rate as pharmacy schools are pumping out graduates. Good luck ( and i mean it) to all foreign grads like us.

mobtasim2011 Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Unfortunately, Lamak is right. What u can do is call local pharmacies and tell them that u are willing to voulanteer ur time toward ur internship hours . U will be lucky if someone would be willing to sign ur papers as ur preceptor. I am sure u wish at least get paid for the gas.But unfort. things have changed. I did my internship hrs while working as tech and getting paid with the min wage. That's bec I was with the company before I passed my FPGEE they refused to change me to an intern.I was lucky to have a pharmacist sign my papers. I just became a RPh, No job yet. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
