Technical Behavioral

I submitted my resume online and then I had one interview. They asked me a bunch of questions. They asked for my transcript and if I had prior pharmacy work experience. I applied online and they asked very straight forward questions. They wanted to know what I know about medicines. They also ran a few drill questions to check if I understood what some of the medicines they were disbursing were.
