Notes from HR Manager:

FYI...we need to hire 4 Staff Pharmacist to work nights only.

The night shift is from 7p-7a.

They have two choices on the incentives we provide. Keep in mind they can only choose one not both and the tuition reimbursement is only for a Pharmacist straight out of Pharmacy School (up too only their 2 years out of school) not their Residency.

Sign Ons-$10,000 for 24 month commitment full time status only (taxable). We try to give them the sign on with their first pay check. If they terminate or change status they will owe the full amount of $10K back to the Company.

Tuition reimbursement is up to $20,000 for a 24 month commitment and is paid out in increments of $5,000 every 6 months. It is also taxable and they need to complete the six months before they can apply for the next $5,000, if they don't complete the six months then they don't get the next $5,000.

The rate starts at $103K+. The director would be able to give a more or less figure to the pharmacist at the time of the interview. this is done only because he has to calculate the rate based on years of experience. Keep in mind the staff pharmacist also qualifies for shift differential and the night shift is at 18%. We do have the 7 on 7 off.

Yes we do prefer a PhD. No we only have one in Pedi. We basically need staff pharmacist in a hospital setting with 2+ years of experience. We do take new grads if they are willing to work nights. We really do not want pharmacist with a lot of retail experience.

If you need more clarification just call me.
