Pharmacy intern hours?

[nniti]

hi everyone,
I am a new member here & was hoping to get some information .
I have got my FPGEC certificate and I want to apply soon for my internship. Since I have my EAD, I dont need H1b visa. I am planning to apply at cvs/ walgreens/rite aid.

My question is:
Is it possible to do internship part time ( like 3-4 hrs per day??)
Or do I have to work full time during the internship??
Pls give me your advice . Thanks in advance.
Best wishes.

Why do you want to for work for CVS?
How do you see yourslef in 5 years time?
How well do you think you might fit in US system of Pharmacy?

Hello. I just passed the FPGEE given last December and am hoping to start my internship ASAP. I will be taking the TOEFL exam this Feb. What else do I need to do to get my FPGEC certificate? I went to the NABP site and the FPGEC bulletin is the same for FPGEE. Does this mean that I get to request for the FPGEC certificate if i pass TOEFL?

Thank you.
