Hello everyone
I just started my job search since my Naplex is weeks away.
I have experience as a pharmacy tech and intern inpatient experience from a well known hospital. I don’t have a residency.
I was wondering what my chances of landing an inpatient role were.
I’m in the Seattle Washington area.
Just want to know what my expectations should be. I don’t want to work retail at all.

I haven’t logged on in months so I’m just seeing this post. I don’t live in Seattle but in general I believe you can get an inpatient role if you know someone who works at the facility you want to work at. Based on your job title, it looks like you passed the NAPLEX. Congrats! What setting are you in now?

I work in a state where abortion was previously banned and is now still pretty heavily restricted. Lately I've heard a lot of really negative and hurtful comments about patients who are picking up contraceptives, and about people who are pro-choice. I don't usually bring my political views to work, and now I feel like I honestly can't say anything without making work really uncomfortable for myself (I'm pro-choice). What should I do?

Those of you that have left retail, what would it take for you to go back? I’m hearing about 50k sign on bonuses at the corner locally (up from 20/25k in February). I’ve been unemployed/underemployed for over a year and am still holding out for anything else.
