You need to get FPGEE certification, see www.nabp.org, I think you need a five year degree though. I wouldn't waste your time though, there are no jobs out there!!!!

How many of them are willing to put forth the effort to become a pharmacist? This guy will pay more money into the system in a year than ten ditch diggers will in their entire life.
