The Role
I enjoyed my work experience at boots, but it was very busy.
Working in a community pharmacy, between a team of experts varies knowledge and widen experience.
the team were really helpful and provided me with all essential information.
I was not bored at all...I did even have time to think about being bored, we all the time had work to do and get it done on time.
I was given great responsibility, however, i felt secured, because whenever i struggled with a question I had to ask my manger.
personally i think doing a summer placement is equally essential to having examinations, because it puts theory into practice.
The Company
I didnt work in an office, I worked with a team in a pharmacy.
very organised and clear.
The company offered me another year of placement and a pre reg year.
Healthcare from home
Very appealing, would love to continue with them
The Culture
The work was in city center and everything is close to me.
It was pretty much affordable.
many social clubs, gyms, shopping centers and entertainment places.
