pharmagurl Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Hi everyone! I have recently passed the FPGEE and TOEFL, and I need a venue for my internship. Does anyone know pharmacy establishments that hire foreign-educated interns? I am currently based in the northern Chicago suburbs but I'm willing to relocate for a pharmacy internship opportunity. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starshine Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Hi! Any luck so far? I might be able to help you with a volunteer internship position in MI. If you have MI intern license. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CookieT Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 I might be able to help you with a volunteer internship position in MI. If you have MI intern license.I think I got a little mixed up here. In order to intern in another state, you should get a license permit from there as well? Meaning I can't use the intern permit from my home state? Thank you.

Joy2014 Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Hi! Any luck so far? I did not find anything but i did not receive my FPGEC certificate yet, although i have no idea where to look cause i've heard that chain pharmacies wont accept Foreign graduate and i have better luck with independent pharmacies.

Do they sponsor H1-B visa too? I took the FPGEE in April so I don't have my certificate yet, much less an intern license. Can you tell me more about this internship? Thanks!
