Good Evening all!!

Good evening everyone, and thank you for joining.

This session is right. On. Time!

Yes indeed, Stephanie!

Make sure your response to the statement "Tell me about yourself" make sure it is succint

Tie your elevator speech back to the job description, don't be afraid to ask for coaching

Letter of intent should be tailored to the program, make sure it is specific to the institution

Resume should be tailored to the key words in the job description

Add numbers and impact to your CV

at what point in your career should you transition from CV to Resume?

CV vs resume depends on the type of position

How far back in your career should your resume go?

Interview starts when you enter the building

Give vs get in your responses, how will you help the organization

great point!!

Make sure you have questions during the interview

What are some strategies to negotiate compensation. Specifically, what can women do to anticipate and avoid offers lower than male counterparts?

Very useful tips.

Avoid "are you going to make me" questions

I agree, Dr. Ryan!

Avoid negativity

When you have a situational question about a difficult time, how can you word it without sounding negative?

Turn failure into feedback, what did you learn from the difficult situation

👍🏽

Using the STAR method is beneficial also!

Wear dark suit; Kamala Harris look without the "chucks"

Hair should not be a distraction

That’s not very inclusive…can we just make sure it’s neat?

Is hijab acceptable?

head only

DONT WORK FOR THOSE COMPANIES

Research the company and their policies on equity and inclusion

You have to interview them too

Agreed Stephanie!

That is a valid point Stephanie.

Great points Stephanie

As minority professionals, we have a tremendous amount to offer to our patients and to the organizations we align with. If the company culture does not embrace you, it is important to work collaboratively within and outside of the organization (NPhA) to bring about the change you want to see.

Dawn Moore!!!!!!😍😍😍😍😍

I have heard it a thousand times. Who you know makes a big difference! Would you recommend contacting the hiring manager or other company employees directly via email (if their information is available) to express interest in a position or... to just submit the application and send a follow up email 2-3 days afterwards?

I think NPhA should develop content for its member on this subject. Given the current social climate, there is more value/power in diversity than conformance that should be leveraged. The pharmacy profession is not exceptional to this

#crownact

notes taken. Thank you so much.

Research the companies and interviewers

Note: this is OUR safe space. All thoughts and ideas are acceptable.

YESS

Have at least 2-3 questions for the interview. NEVER say you don't have any questions.

@Stephanie would you be willing to work with us (NPhA) on creating that content? We can identify one of the committees to lead the charge.

well said Dr. Ryan!

What are some strategies to negotiate compensation. Specifically, what can women do to anticipate and avoid offers lower than male counterparts?

How can adults who have taken “breaks” for “life events” strategize to get back on financial trajectories?

👍🏽

This is after the offer

A great resource is Nailed It! Keys to Crushing the interview by Matt Marvin

What if the interviewer ask you how much money you are looking for?

How do women make sure they aren’t accepting offers inconsistent of their MALE counterparts?

How did we address the gender gap?

It’s becoming very common in the initial screening to give a range of desired salary now

I agree shanice

I think NPhA should explore publication of industry salary benchmarks by practice setting. There should be a voluntary poll of the membership to at least help NPhA members know where to start

We are coming to a close, please place any remaining questions in the chat

How can adults who have taken “breaks” for “life events” strategize to get back on financial trajectories?

Wow, that is a good question.

Yes

Yes and Yes

Thank you! Networking and knowing the industry are great recommendations
