What will I be doing as a Pharmacy Technician?
*LaUrEN* asked:
I just recently got offered a job at the store I work at to become a Pharmacy Technician. Its a step up from what I am right now, so of course I took it.
But what I want to know is, what sort of things will I be doing as a tech?
i am well aware i may have to do “busy” work, but my ultimate goal is to go into pharmaceutical sales. why would i pass up an opportunity that could very well be good for me?

What’s the best approach in getting a Pharmacy Technician job in a community pharmacy?
AnonymousQuestionerAnswerer asked:
I just graduated from high school and i took classes to become a Certified Pharmacy Technician. Now I’m at the hard part where I’m looking for a job in a community pharmacy like CVS or RiteAid, or a privately owned pharmacy. What’s the best way to be noticed that I want the job? Should I talk to the head pharmacist on site? Or should i take it further and actually talk to the head manager of the store? Any ideas? (If your a pharmacy tech i’d look into your answer more since you’ve been there).

Is it worth taking an on line course for Pharmacy or Vet Technician?
DSB asked:
My time is limited away from home so an online course would be best suited for me. I was thinking of doing something with Pharmacy technician or Vet Tech. Is it worthy of spending the money on these online programs? Will it help you secure a job or do most places train on the job? Kaplan U has contacted me on Pharmacy Tech. Any opinions out there? What are some of the best online schools? Thanks!

How should I start a cover letter off applying for a pharmacy technician position?
Jinxess asked:
Should I introduce myself stating my name? I know I need to state any previous experience with providing health care services and other stuff but that’s all I can think of. Should I say “hello, my name is [name] and I am applying for a pharmacy technician position”.
I’m not certified but I am taking a program at a nearby community college that will prepare me for the certification test and the job. I know to include that but that’s all I can think of at the moment.
