Yolanda’s Answer

The field of pharmacy has changed dramatically over the years. I have been a pharmacist for over 20 years, and even though I love what I do, I would not advise the future generation to go into pharmacy. I say that because now you have to do at least 2 residencies to be competitive. Plus there are so many pharmacy schools now, that the market is overly saturated. To get a job you may have to move to the out skirts where no one wants to be. I would seriously reconsider your path. But don't take my word for it. Research the profession. Speak to other pharmacists. I would look into becoming a PA or nurse practitioner. Less time in school, better pay, and they are in demand. If you really want job security, look into the mental health profession. Hope this helps. Wish you the best.

If you have already started pharmacy schools, think about your passion not about the money. The worse thing you could do is to choose a position for the money and end up being miserable.

Mary’s Answer

The answer depends on where you want to work . If you prefer clinical, getting board certification is critical, hospital management requires MBA, pharmaceutical industry demands travel and possible relocation in order to advance, would be best to pursue medical therapy management for employment in retail pharmacy, ambulatory and long term care. There are so many options in pharmacy, it’s hard NOT to find a niche were you can earn reasonable compensation and be professionally fulfilled.
