The interviewers at the Eugene Applebaum College of Pharmacy are interested in your long-term goals within the pharmacy field for a few reasons. First, they want to know if you have a clear idea of what you want to achieve in your career and if you have a passion for the field. Second, they want to see if your goals align with the values and mission of the school. Finally, they want to know if the pharmacy program can help you achieve your goals and if you have a plan for getting there. By asking about your long-term goals, the interviewers are trying to better understand who you are as a candidate and if you would be a good fit for the program.

"My long-term career goals are to become a clinical pharmacist specializing in pediatrics. I have always loved working with children, and my goal is to work at a well-known children's hospital on the East Coast since that is where I am from and where most of my family lives. In addition to completing my residency and finding employment at a children's hospital, I plan to stay current in my field by taking continuing education courses, attending seminars, and surrounding myself with other well-respected pharmacists."
