💬 Interview Questions
What is one of the specific questions they asked you?
Tell us about yourself and how you became interested in pharmacy. They asked a lot about my personal experiences, but I recommend getting experience in a pharmacy because they asked a lot about that (ie. what do I think are downfalls of pharmacy, etc.)
What was the most interesting question?
Tell us about a drug that you have learned about (I had mentioned that I had learned about a ton of new drugs during my experience in the pharmacy).
What was the most difficult question?
They asked me what I thought about purchasing prescription medications from the internet/from Canada (which they took from my on-site essay question).
