pharmacy tech question?...


Has anyone here been a pharmacy tech. Can you tell me what to expect. I was offered a job but am waiting to hear back from them. If you know of any books to read besides just the test books. Thanks in advance. f

Maybe you should look into taking a pharmacy technician course. I know a couple of community colleges around here have the program, I think its 2 or 3 semesters long. Also, I once saw a couple of CVS stores advertising that they'd pay for people to become pharm. technicians..Idk how long their program is though. Good luck on whatever you decide to do!

I applied to a calif CVS as a pharmacy tech and never heard back.. i imagine it would be hard to get a job as a pharm tech right after school with no exp though?
