The Full Story

Welcome! 

This toolkit has helped people feel more confident in pharmacy job interviews, here in the UK, and stand out from the competition. With the help of mock interviews with feedback, three out of four trainees landed their desired job. Use the website's resources and sessions to kick-start your interview journey. Build a bank of winning answers. Keep in mind that getting your dream job takes hard work and commitment from you - no one else can do it for you.

Let me give a short introduction about myself. I'm Dan, a lead surgical pharmacist in a hospital. I have about nine years of pharmacy experience this year. And if you're from the future, that's in 2024. My first interview was for a junior rotational pharmacist at the hospital where I was training. I was so confident; it was my only choice when applying for jobs. With only two positions available and only two trainees on site, I thought I had it in the bag. I was wrong. A course mate from uni wanted to move closer to home. She got the job. I underestimated the competition and had no idea how to prepare for interviews. I didn’t get the job because of my naivety and overconfidence. 

I've sat on both sides of the interview panel, so I know how it feels. There's plenty of help available for passing exams, but little guidance on landing your dream job once you've qualified. Finding relevant interview questions can take a lot of time, with resources scattered all over the place. That's why I've put together this collection of interview questions. Each has a helpful explanation of how to answer it. Additionally, I've included other pre-interview prep tips, such as what to wear, how to sit, and how to get there. It's all in one place, making it easier for you to prepare. I created this toolkit to help you get the job you really want.

We offer various packages to cater to different needs across the UK. Each includes a clear breakdown of what you get. They include help with interview questions, mock interviews, and application reviews. Take a look at our packages and choose the one that best fits your needs.

Trainees and qualified pharmacists alike can benefit from this toolkit. It aims to support your career goals, whether you're starting out or trying to advance. No matter where you are in your career, these resources can help you get to where you want to be. Our aim is to create a one-stop shop for all your pharmacy interview needs and help you land your dream job. With your help, we aim to establish a vibrant, adaptive community that supports your ongoing success.
