"Hi, I'm Kate James, a Compounding Pharmacist in Eugene, Oregon at Broadway Apothecary. And as far as getting my first job as a Pharmacist, it was actually quite easy because nationally there's a shortage for Pharmacists, so our jobs are fairly easy to come by. Actually it seems like people are fighting to get you all the time. In fact, we get recruiter phone calls still when you have a nice, solid job that you really enjoy. So basically it was just picking and choosing where I wanted to live, and it was pretty simple to get my first job. Okay, so to expand on that, there wasn't really much of an interview process. There were three or four pharmacies, they all made offers and basically if you, it was quite simple because once you had a license, you were sought out in high demand. The interview process was quite informal and there were just positions that were needing to filled at that moment in time. I do have friends that went through more rigorous interview processes depending, because of where they wanted to live, there might not have been such a demand. A typical job interview where being interviewed by either a District Manager or somebody in a management position, such as in a hospital situation. And typical questions that you would be asked during a job interview, just making sure that you're a person that will work well with others and that you are who you say you are on paper. Pretty simple."
