Hi,

I am looking for a part time pharmacist job. If you had a choice, would you pick VA or CvS Pharmacy Job?

VA job gives much less pay: 39-45
CVS: 58-60

I am in the tristate area. I can see myself happy in both the jobs given it’s only part-time.

Thanks for helping me decide.

Jack

I can’t speak as a pharmacist so take my thought as a penny on the ground at a gas-pump at 3 in the morning:

I’ve worked in the DOD / VA as a military tech and have witnessed many rph staff members network hard to get positions as GS or contract pharmacists. They all said they’re much happier when moving from previous retail gigs.

Long-term wise I can see working at the VA opening up more opportunities for pay increases and networking skills should a time arise. But it’s part time so if short term then follow the $
