becoming a pharmacy clerk/cashier?
Asked by annie
I am a college student, interested in becoming a pharmacist. I was to becomea pharmacy clerk or cashier for the summer. Where should I look? and what are the chances of me getting such a position for only the summer, especially in the Orange County area of California. and advice will help! thanks

Best Answer:
Good choice! Im a certified pharm tech going on 3 years, and just got into pharmacy school! I worked for CVS Pharmarcy as a part-time job in the summer, one year, then went to Wal-Mart Pharmcy part-time for the next summer, but they kept me on for 10 hours/wk during the school year. I really like the company and will probably stay with them through pharm school! A lot of these places like having college students for the summer. I was hired in a hospital pharmacy, just for the summer, last year. They understand you're a college student and can't be there full-time beyond that. If you're not certified, then usually Kroger or Wal-mart are good for entry level. It's good to not quit after the summer, b/c you can come back for your breaks! I could go on and on about how I got started as a regular clerk, lol! so I'll end it with good luck!
