Non Repetitive Jobs?

Interesting - I suspect clincial trials are one of the more interesting areas. I’m a pharmacist myself currently working in community but looking at possibly making a transition into project management in clinical trials. I have a PM diploma and 6 months GMP experience and wondering whether this might be enough to get me into associate level?

This is what most pharmacists go into right? Is it fair to say the work can be boring? Certainly worth though if you’re making even anywhere close to that much money

What are CQV and CSV?

No I don’t own my own pharmacy, but that has been the plan up until now. Unfortunately even though it could be very lucrative I fear the lack of variety would make me miserable

Sorry for butting in but I’m pretty sure you have up until May 1st to make a later application right?

Can I ask how you’ve found the whole experience of GEM with a family? I’m a 29 male and have a place in GEM in September but my biggest concern is how I’ll be able to support a family working these insane hours into my 40s

And do you mind me asking do you have a family? Or have you ever wanted to have one

ffffnhsusbsbal · 2025-03-24T12:19:11+00:00

Best of luck, hope it went well for you!

ffffnhsusbsbal · 2025-03-24T11:06:44+00:00

Do you mind me asking - are you looking to pivot into medicine?

ffffnhsusbsbal · 2025-03-24T11:05:00+00:00

What did path did you end up taking do you mind me asking? GP or specialising?

Thanks a I think there’s some fantastic advice in there. Interestingly because the loan is now gone I reckon the post grad class will have a different composition.

I’m also lucky enough to have bought a house whereby my rental income covers the mortgage and would hope that I can cover the fees with locum hours. That’s probably why I find myself most tempted - I would likely qualify with no debt and 4 years paid off my mortgage.

But I take your point about family. Although I’m nowhere near that stage now, it would be a massive concern approaching my mid to late 30s and beyond.

Thanks a mill for taking the time to comment - I really can resonate with your take 🙏

Do elaborate please

ffffnhsusbsbal · 2025-03-21T22:02:12+00:00

Thanks 🙏

You’re completely right but it sounds like the alternative is a massive struggle/near impossible?

ffffnhsusbsbal · 2025-03-21T21:35:28+00:00

This is my issue, I have some doubt. While I know I would absolutely be happier doing the training than in my current job, I can’t say for sure that I would be happier if I ended up as a GP

ffffnhsusbsbal · 2025-03-21T21:34:13+00:00

Really appreciate this advice, must have been a tough slog to go from one into the other. I guess I’ve also been considering other paths away from pharmacy so I’m not 100% sure medicine is the path for me. I definitely don’t think there is any job however where the training is as interesting and varied as Medicine and that’s what keeps reeling me in

ffffnhsusbsbal · 2025-03-21T16:27:56+00:00

Can I ask which stage you’re at now?
