After applying online and getting a referral from a current pharmacist, I was called for an initial interview after more than four weeks. The position was offered after a total of three interviews. The first interview was a quick phone call where the interviewer asked about my experience. Once I passed that, she scheduled an in-person meeting. This was followed by two interviews on the same day: first with a friendly HR representative, and then a separate interview with the Pharmacy Manager. I also had to take a pharmaceutical math test, but that was during orientation after I had already accepted the job.

The hiring process involved an initial HR phone screen, followed by a behavioral interview with HR, and then a final interview with the manager. The interviews were completed within two weeks, and the process felt smooth and manageable. About a month after passing background and medical checks, I received the offer.
