Certified Pharmacy Technician

May 2018 • Princeton, NJ

What I liked

Working as a pharmacy technician my second year of college was really helpful to me, as it introduced me to the material I would be studying. I got to familiarize myself with the medications and policies that I am now learning about as a third year pharmacy student.

What I wish was different

It was really difficult at first to adapt to such a fast pace environment, so I wish my training had been to shadow another technician instead of trial and error.

Advice

Apply to multiple locations, be prepared to work in a fast pace retail setting, and always ask questions if you are unsure of the proper procedures!
