Depending on where you work as a pharmacist, your typical day may not require you to think quickly on your feet. However, when something happens that requires you to act fast, the interviewers want to be assured that you can. Perhaps you had a patient that was drug-seeking, went into cardiac arrest, became violent or belligerent, or another type of situation that required you to respond quickly. Let the interviewers know when you had to think quickly using your critical thinking skills and the outcome.
