I've got a pharmacy technician interview tomorrow any tips?

So I'm really excited i got an interview for a student pharmacy technician post, but it's tomorrow and I've started to get nervous.

Just woundering if anyone on here started out as a pharmacy tech. and so could give me some tips or hints as to how it might go.
Any comments from anyone else are much appreciated. :yep:

Hey. I'm a pharm tech (though my official title is Saturday boy) and I work most days doing all the mod cons. Just be all friendly because that's what you need to be and be able to deal with the customers. Sometimes it's stressful when you need to wait a million years for the pharmacist to check a prescription for you to take and the customer gets annoyed at you or you get some snidey methadone patient who demands immediate service. Just show that you can cope with the problems you might face and you're genuinely interested in the job.
Hope that is useful.

Don't be nervous.

Is it for hospital or community?

Just express that you want a job working with people, have an interest in science, like to work as part of a team etc

Ask about the training you'll be receiving, where you'll go to college. If you're applying for hospital ask about the different rotations you'll do.

Good luck!!
