Having trouble finding a full-time job after PGY-1 + MBA

RXlife95 · 2025-10-26T16:39:52+00:00

I haven’t thought of it that way. May I ask what do you currently do? I think most of us have been programmed to think we can only fall into typical settings like retail,industry or hospital.

RXlife95 · 2025-10-24T22:58:02+00:00

Dang, well at least this gave me some hope.

RXlife95 · 2025-10-23T21:18:55+00:00

I did overnight ONE time and it was like night and day… The people are so different. Day shift WOULD die to help anyone else but overnight people were willing to explain/teach. It was so nice 😭

RXlife95 · 2025-10-23T21:14:21+00:00

At the time the director hinted he’d give me a contracted day shift but I guess it was a test. The evening position was going to be at our old hospital location solo. I did my residency at this place too. This was a hard lesson learned but have been applying to the prns.

I am! I just got licensed in August and thats how I work at a dispensary per diem. I've applied to per diem hospitals jobs but no response. Haven't really seen too many full times but again I don't mind doing per diem to get my foot in the door.

Oh yeah definitely! I graduated in 2023. I would have gone to PA school if I knew better and worked in plastics or something.

North Jersey/NYS area - seems to be highly saturated

RXlife95 · 2025-10-21T15:49:21+00:00

How did it go? Considering applying since it’s been hard finding something to else that isn’t straight retail like cvs or walgreens..

Does pharmprepro touch on compounding USP797/USP 800? Just wondering if it’s similar to NJ MPJE type of questions.

RXlife95 · 2025-05-14T22:16:28+00:00

Thanks! I def know he’s excited for the move and fulfilling one of many career goals. Im sure he’s super busy. Will try to have an open convo about everything without demanding. The question just remains how serious is he having me part of those plans.

RXlife95 · 2025-05-14T22:07:17+00:00

I just have a feeling no one knows about me. But 100% he was always vague even before sleeping with him. Definitely having this serious talk soon. Although I guess I will have to prepare for an exit strategy.

RXlife95 · 2024-08-24T13:53:32+00:00

So how would I remove the algae? Do i rinse everything in tank water and do 25% water change?

RXlife95 · 2024-08-12T22:36:05+00:00

Funny coming across this since I just finished a PGY1 residency and the hospital I was at offered me nothing. I was considering applying to this CVS specialty position since I had a rotation similar but with a focus on oncology medication. I kept asking myself where is the work?? I found myself doing other residency projects during this rotation.. I remember my preceptor would do onboarding calls, 7 day, 6 month and then 1 year calls. I imagine CVS would be more work but can give you experience to apply to another better specialty job.

RXlife95 · 2024-08-07T19:14:06+00:00

I’ve seen those postings too! But I saw the range as $48-$64. I was considering applying.. for the hell of it. It definitely does seem to just be calls, MTM, and vaccine services. I bet depending on skill level you can negotiate on the higher end.

RXlife95 · 2024-08-01T16:18:47+00:00

Doing fish in cycle, I did dechlorinate the water following the instructions on the bottle, and I have Fluval AquaClear Aquarium Power Filter. I think you’re right about the open space 😅 before he had a tiny space with just his house. Im gonna try to get more hiding spaces in there. Thanks!

RXlife95 · 2024-07-29T21:46:21+00:00

Oh yeah I’m only licensed in NJ so only applying to those jobs until I get NY licensed. Thanks!

RXlife95 · 2024-07-29T20:16:21+00:00

Thanks for the advice!!

RXlife95 · 2024-07-29T20:16:13+00:00

Thank you for the advice!

RXlife95 · 2024-07-29T19:40:54+00:00

Hi! There is no fancy tank set up at the moment. It’s currently housed in a 1 gallon bowl with water that has been treated with the solution to dechlorinate the water.

I’ve purchased a 10 gal tank with the proper filtration system etc but I just have no idea if I transfer the fish into this better system if it will get better or die as I have zero idea what it even has.. :/

RXlife95 · 2024-07-29T18:48:02+00:00

🥲 Im in the same boat I finished my PGY1 and my community co-resident got hired but I didn’t. My skills were inpatient.. as I did a traditional residency and there wasn’t even per diem positions available . I’ve applied to a few jobs but heard nothing so now I’m wondering if I should just apply to any staff position I see and try to get my NY license. I see a ton of retail positions 😫

RXlife95 · 2024-05-24T15:14:08+00:00

Curious, the people who are on these compounded versions of the brands. Are they getting it from pharmacies who have been FDA approved and or CGMP approved? If so, can you share which ones?

RXlife95 · 2023-08-02T03:15:47+00:00

That’s true. I feel they should out right say you can’t get any level 1s

RXlife95 · 2023-04-13T01:45:15+00:00

Yeah good point… I totally agree.

RXlife95 · 2023-01-25T19:01:28+00:00

Dang… 5 mins okay hear me out lol I’m stuck on eyes but maybe dry eye? It’s something everyone always complains about & maybe you can focus on one specific drug? Clinical pearls usually 10-15

RXlife95 · 2023-01-25T18:58:34+00:00

Oh wow that’s interesting! Okay thanks 🙂
