On the Eugene Applebaum College of Pharmacy website, there are four questions mentioned that will be asked during your personal interview, and this question is one of them. On the College of Pharmacy website, they recommend pharmacy experience for their students. In fact, practical experience is a requirement for graduation. The college offers several opportunities for students to gain hands-on experience, including internships, co-op programs, and rotations in various practice settings. These experiences are designed to prepare students for real-world practice and help them develop the skills and knowledge necessary for success as pharmacists.
While the interviewers can look at your resume or CV to see if you have experience working in a pharmacy setting, they want to hear from you. If you have worked in a pharmacy, let them know where, in what capacity, and what you learned from your experience.

"I worked as a retail pharmacy technician at Rite-Aid for four years while attending college. I wanted to understand what it was like working in a pharmacy and if I would enjoy working as a pharmacist. The job gave me the skills and experience needed to help me become an excellent pharmacist and showed me that I would indeed enjoy working as one in a retail environment."
