Pharmacists: Timing Is Everything

I was thinking about this the other day--how timing is everything

. And how it plays an important role in getting hired for the job you want. If only.... you heard about the job one step before another pharmacist, you would have been the last one to be considered for an interview because that was the cutoff before the pharmacy hiring manager stopped accepting applications. If only... you had answered the phone when a recruiter called you about a job opportunity that met your criteria, you would have heard about a position you wanted to be considered for.

I suppose it makes you wonder if, in the end, it was all meant to be. Whether you were truly meant to be to work as a clinical inpatient pharmacist, or you were actually meant to transition into a home infusion pharmacist position....perhaps whatever ended up happening was just fate. However, if you leave everything to chance without doing what you can take control of, you will miss out on job offer options to choose from.

Getting the pharmacist position you want is in many ways like meeting the significant other of your dreams. If you sit around at home with the right intentions & wait for your dream guy or woman to show up, you will not have as good chances as if you made the effort to be in a situation more conducive to attract the significant other you are looking for.

Getting the job you want is about being at the right place at the right time, and being prepared. If you have the connections without a plan to ace the interview, you are missing pieces to getting hired. If you know how to market yourself in an interview and "talk yourself into a job", but are not good at getting invited for interviews, you will fall short of getting offers you deserve.

If you prefer to do the same thing you've always done, you will not get the results you could if you knew the secrets to what works in this market. What worked before does not work now, because there is more competition than before. You must get noticed among your competition, or you will lose out on chances to get interviews and offers. Other pharmacists who decide to take control of their job search will have an advantage over you. Will you take control to get more interviews or offers, or will you do what you've always done?
