“Definitely would recommend Pharmacy Career Coach to any pharmacist!” - Jorge

Jorge was burnt out and wanted to desperately change his career path.

Jorge knew what he wanted to do in his career as a pharmacist, yet he found himself stuck in retail, a place he knew was incompatible with his career goals.

Of course, it’s no secret how demanding retail can be, thanks to long shifts—and, as Jorge knows well, “a lot of pressure” linked to financial goals, scripts, and immunizations metrics.

Worst, as he was promoted to manager the pressure to meet performance targets only grew as did his responsibilities which only pushed Jorge further and further away from the very human element that prompted him to go into pharmacy in the first place.

Something had to change.

Pharmacy Career Coach became Jorge’s lifeline in this critical transition.

After trying to look on his own and not making any progress, he knew he would need some help.

The big problem?Jorge claims there were not “a lot of places for me to apply” and that he was “really lost.”

He simply “didn’t know where to begin” and went so far as to declare that “desperate” best described his state of mind.

Pharmacy Career Coach became Jorge’s lifeline in this critical transition.

The mentorship he found there motivated and inspired him in just the right ways, and from “the first couple of sessions” Jorge realized that he had all along been underestimating his own potential—and under-rating the depth and credibility of his own professional experiences.

In other words, Jorge was selling himself short.

Jorge credits his PCC coach with helping him to better measure—and then more clearly showcase—the full extent of his career and its successes.

The coach, Jorge says, “gave me the hope that it was actually going to be a lot easier to find a job in the clinical area” than he originally thought.

That kind of confidence goes a long way.

In the end, Jorge says he "definitely would recommend Pharmacy Career Coach to any pharmacist” who is “unemployed and looking for a job,” or even that pharmacist who is currently employed but seeking a change.

He elaborated, too, that the financial investment of working with PCC is “absolutely worth” the expense and, ultimately, it’s “money well spent, because the coaches are extremely knowledgeable and they help you realize the potential that you have.”

How’s this for a happy ending? Jorge received multiple offer and accepted a full-time, Clinical Pharmacist role with a Mon-Fri 9-5 shift with NO WEEKENDS and is absolutely loving his new role!
